Sabah Arbilli was born in Iraq in 1977 and is now a British calligrapher residing in London. From the age of 12, he began practising calligraphy, and with an engineering background realised the accuracy and geometrical forms of each letter. Being brought up in a traditional Islamic family led him to read the Holy Qur’an and was inspired by the sacred letters; he then went on to write the Qur’an twice and is currently writing the third one. He has gained recognition for the art of Calligraphy by running workshops in different cities in the U.K since 2000. He takes great pleasure in explaining the beauty of this art and the preciseness of every stroke for each letter. He has participated in many international exhibitions abroad and won on many different levels. His works are collected throughout the world.
