Karim Jabbari
Karim Jabbari is a world-renowned calligraphy and light artist. The love he has for light and letters is fueled by his passion to incorporate ancient elements into modern design. The main focus of his art is to build bridges between cultures and civilizations through calligraphy. He uses modern techniques while preserving the essence of classical forms and styles.
Because of his wide-ranging talent, he is often sought after to do live performances, art installations, large-scale murals, host workshops, serve as a panelist, and has given lectures in major universities like NYU and Yale. In Dubai, he was runner-up for the first Islamic Creativity Award and was recently named one of the Top 30 Public Artists in the world.
One & Only The Palm, alongside ArtKōrero, chose to highlight the root of The Holy Month through the art form of a locally acclaimed artist, highlighting the significant value of Ramadan as a spiritual journey. Karim will transform One and Only The Palm into a sacred space this Ramadan by fusing light shadow and Arabic Script, inviting visitors to reflect on his compelling dialogue between tradition and modernity through his art.
The artist is exclusively represented by Inloco Gallery in the UAE, where his solo exhibition Vertical Horizon / 361 Degrees is currently on display.
