Description
Nourdin's playful and colorful wooden panels often depict important aspects of Moroccan life. They are painted on wooden block panels that are traditionally used to teach children how to read and write the Quran. That is why the back side often features the Arabic alphabet or lessons that kids use to learn how to read and write. Both of these aspect contribute to a truly unique piece of art that is firmly rooted in Moroccan culture.
