SUFI IN THE CITY
Tariq
Imam
Collaborator
Tariq's current work entails studious approaches to cosmology, theology, and linguistics as he attempts to understand both his faith and his limits. Although his expressions currently take the form of sounds and music, he is versed in most time-based media and has presented his work internationally at festivals and symposia. He is currently chasing a feeling that involves comparative linguistics of Arabic and Greek as well as exploring the mystical language of the Qu’ran through drums, voice, and text.
