The Dubai-based Pakistani artist turns Quranic verses into calligraphic art.
Every child is an artist, but the problem is, as Pablo Picasso once said, how to remain an artist once one grows up. Defying any such ‘problems’, Dubai-based Pakistani artist Nazar Haidri continues to amaze art enthusiasts with his paintings, even at the age of 78.
Haidri always had a keen interest in music and art. Now, he infuses his love for the two on canvas using various techniques such as cubism and pointillism. In the holy month of Ramadan, Haidri uses his gift to create Quranic calligraphy, a technique where he creates canvas art out of verses from the Quran using oil and acrylic.
