Mahwish work is based on a spiritual experience She believe everyone have gone through. Allah has designed each and every element with a very interesting math in it. Inspired by his name MUSAWWIR, she chooses to explore and engage with this spiritual journey based on self -made calculations started by a mere nuqta (dot). These started developing into calculated drawings of my connection to the names of Allah. All of these mathematical calculations are in praise of Allah and reinforce a belief that no one could ever understand his dimensions.
