Sabbatical Presentation by Nahid Tootoonchi – Department of Art + Design, Art History, Art Education

Learning and researching calligraphy as an artform in different languages, particular Persian was my sabbatical focus.

Taking the letterform to its essence of line and point with negative and positive shades, to its bare minimum, and to disassociate it with rhetoric usage in our daily life communication is my goal. I have been working on two different themes: Combining letterform with organic elements from nature and using letterform as design elements to create non-conformist composition, which I will be discussing in my presentation.

The presentation will take place on Friday, November 18 from 3-4:30 pm in CA 3080.
