Splash launches Islamic calendar

As Splash begins its 20 year journey it pays tribute to the region with the launch of the first ever Splash Islamic Calendar.
Created exclusively by world-renowned calligrapher, Wissam Shawkat, the calendar creates a benchmark that gratifies the sensibilities of the Middle Eastern audiences.
The calendar takes audiences on a magnificent painterly voyage through the year.
Speaking about this novel concept, Raza Beig, CEO Splash and ICONIC said: “Splash originated in the Middle East 2 decades ago and over the years we have come up with numerous initiatives that have set industry benchmarks. In 2010, we launched the first Splash Calendar which was created to satisfy the creative urge of fashion and art connoisseurs in the Region. As we get ready to celebrate our 20th Anniversary, we present for the very first time the Splash Islamic Calendar which is a series of artistic renditions of the 12 names of Allah that share a common thread, yet are individualistic in the patterns they create.”
As each image tugs at you from both a creative and spiritual level, Wissam’s unique style of contemporary culture creates an inimitable piece of art that is bound to stay with the consumer for not just the 365 days but for years to come.
“Through the beautiful play of form balance and craft, the calendar is designed keeping in mind the aesthetic and spiritual quotient. The result of Wissam Shawkat’s talent is for the world to marvel at and I hope people will enjoy the 12 stunning visuals that scan the months of 2013 as much as we enjoyed creating them.”
Wissam who has 20 years of experience to his credit and whose work not only finds a place of pride in many public domains but also on the walls of Palaces and Galleries alike uses exquisite craftsmanship and vibrancy of contemporary culture to create designs.
The calendar is available in a desktop version, across all Splash and Centerpoint stores starting at a minimum purchase of SR 100 or equivalent.
