I imagine the world through the sixteen seas of poetry; the voice in me is eternal echoes of oral history.
Sara Khalid is a Multidisciplinary Designer; who uses her Arabic-spirited and research-driven processes to develop her set of works HyperLink.
In her practice, she aims to find the composing thread between her roots and the links she clicks to navigate the digital narrative.
As she carries her poetic mind through design, she’s plotting analogies of Arabic language and computer languages in digital rhetoric.
To me, to communicate eloquently is the human intrinsic attribute; it is the voice of his consciousness, the reflection of his mind, and the shape of his soul. In the Holy Quran, Allah (SWT) says: ”Created man, [and] taught him eloquence” that a human is a word embodied, a manifestation of a deep-seated culture.
