Safura Hameed, a young girl, from Srinagar’s Badamwari area has taken her passion for calligraphy to another level – she took the calligraphy art to 3D mode.
“I think that I am the first artist in J&K who has introduced this type of 3D calligraphy. After getting a good response from online platforms, I turned my passion into entrepreneurship.”
The main challenge she faced was to convert the basic traditional calligraphy into ‘something not done before’.
Safura prepares the claylike material herself which she says is her own concept. “The material is durable, non-toxic and waterproof. I have kept the composition of the material a secret since it is my own concept for which I have worked very hard,” she says.
