Islamic art and calligraphic exhibition was held at Defence Authority (DA) Creek Club in Karachi, Pakistan on Sunday.

Artist Asif Ghazali put his works on display at the exhibition. The Islamic art encompasses visual arts, including oil paintings, calligraphy and ceramics, among others.

It mainly focuses on the depiction of patterns and Arabic calligraphy. Calligraphic design is omnipresent in Islamic art and is visually expressed in a mix of Quranic verses and historical proclamations.

Two of the main scripts involved are symbolic Kufic and Naskh, which can adorn and enhance the visual appeal of the walls and domes of buildings.

The works of the new artists include oil paintings on canvas and on paper. They also include calligraphic works of Quranic verses in oil painting, flowers and battlefield scenes in oil paintings on canvas. The artistic works have a lot of aesthetic attraction and visual charm.
