Temporary Calligraphy Illuminates Historic Sites Throughout Europe
Mexican calligraffiti artist Said Dokinscombines calligraphy writing with graffiti techniques to create public murals that address conflicts of power, destruction, and control imposed by both historic and contemporary regimes. His latest project, Heliographies of Memory, uses luminous tools to explore displaced memory, creating light paintings that use famous historic buildings or other iconic sites as temporary backdrops.
