Language is a fundamental tool for perceiving and responding to the world, shaping thoughts, cultures, and histories. Its ability to evolve and adapt makes it both an intellectual and expressive force. Throughout history, written language has served as a coded system, preserving meaning and solidifying the structure of sound.Alphabets themselves are codes that can be transformed for new purposes. In my work, I redefine these codes to create a universal visual language—one that moves beyond direct meaning and instead invites a new form of communication. Rooted in geometry and spirituality, my practice merges Ibn Muqlah’s Proportional Cursive Script with the mathematical principles of the Vedic Square. By assigning numerical values to letters and connecting them through geometric patterns, I generate a new visual system where language and form become one.
This approach unites geometry, faith, and aesthetics, offering a fresh perspective on language one that transcends its conventional role and reveals a deeper, more universal expression.
