Uber den Künstler

Born in Beirut in 1979, Joumana Medlej lives in London.
A graphic designer by training, with experience in print and multimedia, Joumana long craved for more meaningful expressions of creativity. She received the essence of Kufic script from master calligrapher Samir Sayegh, through years of close collaboration. She’s especially interested in the unique relationship between Kufic and geometry, both sacred arts, bringing together the ancient, alchemical methods of hand-grinding pigments with the potential of modern laser-cutting. Her work is found in private and public collections in the UK and the Middle-East.
