Farah Fayyad

“Farah Fayyad is a graphic designer and printmaker from Beirut, Lebanon. Classically trained in calligraphy, Farah attempts to preserve the traditional structure and behavior of the Arabic script while experimenting with tools and form. Her practice aims to produce contemporary Arabic typography that references the past but does not adhere to it stylistically. Her practice also involves a lot of play with screen-printing in terms of experimentation, teaching, and performing the craft publicly as interventions/performances. Farah is currently based between Beirut and Amsterdam.”
