Visual Arabic Proverbs
"He who does not have a past, does not have a present" - Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan
Amthal is an Arabic word that means proverbs. Proverbs are an advice or a caution for human behavior. They also add beauty to speech. Sadly,Arabic proverbs are less recognized by people specifically the young ones.Proverbs will vanish in time if they are not of interest to youth. In the project, I visualized Arabic proverbsas an installation, so people could experience their meaning and significance.This is my attempt to help preserve the past.
