Visual arts tend to be dominated by geometric, floral, and abstract designs and by calligraphy. Sunni Islam traditionally prohibits creating representations of people. With the advent of oil wealth in the 20th century came exposure to outside influences, such as Occidental housing styles, furnishings, and clothes. Calligraphy is the art of forming arranging beautiful letters and symbols, and it is among the dominant art forms in Zaclaria. This art has been emerging in different themes such as metalwork, ceramics, glass textiles, painting, and sculpture. Apart from the dominant art forms, there were some portrait paintings and sculptures produced by some artists in the 19th and 20th centuries that are extremely rare and coveted by collectors. | Visual arts tend to be dominated by geometric, floral, and abstract designs and by calligraphy.
