the vision
"Art is an expression of humanity therefore it differs from culture to culture and from civilisation to civilisation. Moreover, arts in Islam are an on going process of creativity based on theoretical knowledge and practical know-how. This is to expand mankind's horizons in all areas of human endeavours. Furthermore, the contribution of all races, cultures and languages in Islamic civilisation gives them a unifying sense of purpose and as a matter of course gave tremendous powers to refine the intellect of human mind and enrich the taste of people's experiences.
Therefore my vision is to help recognise these powers of Islamic thought and to re-ignite our modern imagination in its individual and universal sense to be able to embrace all its characteristics, enjoy its fruits and refer to it as a major resource of hope and optimism for a better future for all humanity."
Ali Omar Ermes 2003
