Description: There Is Still Time Before the Snow on the Earth Melts is a calligraphy painting in which deformed Kufic letters are transformed into the image of a mountain of ice. The letters lose their conventional proportions and readability, becoming visual elements that build the shape, texture, and structure of the mountain.
The black-and-white composition creates a stark contrast between the dark forms of the calligraphy and the white space surrounding them, evoking the purity and fragility of snow and ice. Here, Kufic calligraphy moves beyond language and becomes landscape—a visual reflection on time, change, and the vulnerability of the natural world.
