Copper Flower Garden: A New Harmony in Calligraphy and Metalwork

Calligraphy and metalworking, with their rich and intertwined history spanning over a thousand years, continue to captivate and inspire. Their masterpieces are housed in renowned museums worldwide, showcasing the evolution of these distinct yet interconnected forms.

In the past two centuries, calligraphy, particularly in its decorative styles like Golzar script, has undergone significant transformations. Simultaneously, the technical and aesthetic aspects of metal arts have also seen extensive advancements.

The works presented in this collection result from a thorough exploration of the developments in these two vast domains of Islamic art in Iran. They reflect innovative creations based on these traditional forms. Some pieces feature calligraphy in the Jali Nastaliq script, while others uniquely combine engraving with thermal patina, an unorthodox approach until now.

Thermal patina, created spontaneously, renders each artwork unique and one-of-a-kind. Moreover, the calligraphy of these pieces is exclusively crafted for this collection, further emphasizing their uniqueness.

"Copper Flower Garden" is a fusion of the intelligent precision of calligraphy, the patience and delicacy of engraving, and the element of surprise brought by thermal patina. Together, they create compositions that, while firm and grounded, also capture the fleeting passion and enthusiasm of the artists.
