Ahmad Moustafa – "Untitled", Abstract Calligraphic Composition Watercolour and Ink on Paper, Dated 1979.
A striking abstract calligraphic composition by Ahmad Moustafa, executed in watercolour and ink on paper and dated 1979. The work is constructed around a dynamic, spiralling vertical form composed of layered, rhythmic calligraphic strokes, interwoven with smaller clusters of script that create a sense of movement and visual ascent. Set against a pale green ground within the paper, the composition balances density and open space, allowing the sweeping curves and controlled line weight to dominate the visual field. Subtle numerical annotations appear throughout the calligraphic forms, reflecting Moustafa’s analytical and structural approach to sacred geometry and proportion.
