Our Story

I was fortunate to learn this ancient print making from two Turkish masters of this art, Feridun Ozgorn and Hikmet Barutcugil in the 1990s. I am very grateful to have been given this opportunity to have learned from these remarkable men..

The process itself it profound, it is a conversation with the mediums used and an exploration of the meanings and visual representations of the symbols and their expressions that lie beyond the verbal . In my work, both traditional forms of calligraphy and patterns as well as modern experiment are part of expression through this medium.

I am particularly fascinated with the written word and symbols- particularly the of traditional Arabic as it is expressed as an art form- the meanings themselves conveying beauty and magnificence, the forms of these words a thing of great beauty, which I work to elaborate meaning and honor form.
