Work & Worship: Sophia A Sattar-Taffakur

7.5" x 8.5" Pen on Paper Description: This painting is inspired from the verse “How many a signs are there in the heavens and the earth that they pass by while they are disregardful of it” Al Quran: 12:105 Artist Statement When I talk about my work I am merely not talking about my artistic endeavors but also my everyday life, which is a manifestation of the Quran. I am my religion. Quran was sent down in Arabic, because of the depth and vastness of this language, no image or language can do it justice, but this is a humble effort to replicate its teachings, feelings and humanly pursuit of this beautiful Book.
