Year 7 Islamic Art

Description

Welcome to Level 1 of our Islamic Art curriculum! This entry-level course is designed to introduce students to the fundamental elements of Islamic art, with a focus on calligraphy, geometric patterns, and bimorphic designs. In this level, students will begin by using traditional tools, such as a compass and straightedge, to recreate and explore beautiful patterns from the Islamic World. Starting with simpler designs, students will gradually advance to more complex patterns, emphasizing the calligraphy traditions of West and North Africa. As students progress, they will develop their skills in reading and writing various calligraphy scripts and learning intricate arabesque and geometric patterns.
