Chams explores when she first developed an interest in calligraphy and explains her accomplishments related to her artwork, how often she practised it, and how she mastered it. We talk about some of her best calligraphy work so far and her reasoning behind this particular piece of art. We then explore how she is involved within the London community. Chams finishes by giving basic calligraphy tips to the audience for those who would like to pursue this type of art.
