Nasr’s series of painted calligraphies on translucent parchment are enclosed in Plexiglas and the design is visible from either side, like panels of stained glass. The medium of painted parchment recalls that of Chinese shadow puppets, and the calligraphic text is found within borders with motifs drawn from the lexicon of Chinese traditional design. This work has 'Al-Hob Min Simat Al Karam' repeatedly written on it, meaning "love is a characteristic of generosity".
