Sony PSP
The Kufic Maze was commissioned for PSP: The Beautiful Script Exhibition sponsored by Sony Playstation to coincide with the launch of their handheld lifestyle device, the PSP.
The Kufic Maze is intended to capture the interactive element of a game as well as play on the direct visual connection between the graphics of a maze and the Kufic script. The maze is entered through the word raghbah, meaning 'desire', in Arabic. The shortest pathway through the maze makes up the Arabic word jamal, meaning 'beauty', while the exit is made through the word hurriyah, meaning 'freedom'.
