At first glance, the form appears as a visual study in rhythm and spatial interval, yet its underlying structure is derived from the word “Allah”, whose four letters are translated here into four successive layers each rectangle serving as a visual abstraction of one component of the word.
Through this quiet sequence, the work deconstructs the word into distilled units that are not intended for direct reading, but rather for contemplating the internal architecture of language as it shifts from written expression to visual construction.
