This is my award winning project that explores the intersection between Islamic Geometric Patterns and the philosophy of Aesthetics. Basically a whole bunch of vivd visuals that I was obsessed with making.

We applaud EPIC and members of the Plano Muslim community for the discipline and patience they have shown in advance of this hate rally. The fact that the mosque is carrying on with its weekend food drive for the general public as usual is a testament to this house of worship and the positive role it plays in supporting its neighbors of all faiths.
We commend local law enforcement for working with the community to keep the community safe. We encourage all elected officials to condemn the anti-Muslim extremism that Greg Abbott, Ken Paxton and others have fomented.
We urge all community members to follow the instructions of EPIC leadership and law enforcement authorities, ignore the provocations of these racist and bigoted losers and carry on with their worship and lives as usual.
Sami Hamdi is my son, and these are further clarifications in reply to the two tweets from the U.S. State Department and the Department of Homeland Security.
It’s deeply unfair to see Sami treated this way—his reputation attacked, his voice silenced, his work distorted. Sami is not an extremist; he’s a journalist and political analyst who stands for dialogue, respect, and human dignity. (He also loves football and supports Arsenal FC.)
When some individuals burn the Qur’an, insult Islam, and spread hostility toward Muslims, it’s called freedom of speech. But when Sami criticizes Israeli policies or asks hard questions, he’s punished, arrested, and deported.
I often hear U.S. officials urging Europe to uphold free speech—yet Sami is denied it. Why can’t freedom of expression apply to him first?
Sami is a principled man. At 23, he moderated TV discussions between Jewish, Christian, and Muslim leaders to promote understanding. His pinned tweet condemns antisemitism. Why can’t his opinion be tolerated? Condemning the genocide in Gaza is not a crime—it is a moral duty shared by Jews, Christians, Muslims, Hindus, and Buddhists alike.
Sami represents a generation of young moderate Muslims who believe in peaceful coexistence and on dignity and freedom to all, including the Palestinians. Silencing him weakens democracy and Harm America's image and reputation worldwide. All he asks for is the same freedom others take for granted: to speak, question, and be heard without fear.
If this still doesn’t convince you, remember: Sami is a journalist, and punishing him for speaking the truth not only undermines the freedom and democracy America claims to uphold, but also puts it in the same league as some of the most oppressive dictatorships in the world. Surely America deserves better than that.
