waw

Waw is the 26th letter of the Arabic alphabet. In sufism, it symbolises many things in Islam and Ottoman culture, among which the most important is pure love to Allah and human being’s closeness to Allah. This letter has been repeteadely written by calligraphists. It can be seen in many architectural and literal works of art.

Initially, the calligrapher wrote waw. Then, this artwork is called as Akkase Marbling Art. Akkase is a type of marbling in which writing or pattern is obtained by taking more than one marbling on the same paper.

A light marbling is made on the floor. From the outer borders of the desired shape, the ground marbling transferred on. The Akkase is completed when the desired pattern (it can be calligraphy, miniature or pattern) is cut out of the paper, the template is removed, adhered to the light-ground marbling with semi-adhesive spray adhesives, marbling again and the template is removed.
