Description: Green Habit of the Tree is a contemporary calligraphic painting composed entirely from a single Kufic letter. Repeated, transformed, and arranged across the white background, the letter becomes the structural element from which a group of trees emerges.
The black Kufic forms create the trunks and foliage through repetition and variation, while the white space surrounding them becomes an essential part of the composition. By limiting the work to one letter and a monochromatic palette, the painting explores how a single calligraphic form can generate different visual structures.
Here, the letter moves beyond its linguistic function and becomes an image. Through rhythm, repetition, and transformation, Kufic calligraphy creates a landscape of trees, where writing and nature meet in an abstract visual language.
