Art is a very strong part of our tradition.
Yousef was one of a dozen artists who gathered today to showcase their work at the Arab Cultural Center's Islamic art fair. We wanted to promote the art in the area, among Muslims and the community at-large. An architecture major at UC Berkeley, Yousef said she used Quranic clip-art for her words and phrases. Yousef showed some stencil-work done on glass bells. It's a very mechanical way of making art.
