Risograph Calendar, 2026

Lena Kassicieh is a Palestinian-American anthropologist, ceramicist, and multidisciplinary artist based in Dubai. Created in collaboration with Alaa Al Sadi, this Limited Edition Risograph calendar brings together 12 idioms from across the Arabic-speaking world; each one, a testament to the language’s creativity, cultural expression, and shared wisdom. In removing geographical markers, we honor Arabic as a living entity that transcends imposed borders moving through dialects and communities.

Every month features a hand drawn illustration, printed using a Risograph machine, where colours are layered to create depth and enrich texture. Each calendar is unique, showing the subtle organic variations that come with analogue printin
