Micrography
Micrography (from Greek, literally small-writing – "Μικρογραφία"), also called microcalligraphy, is a Jewish form of calligrams developed in the 9th century, with parallels in Christianity and Islam,〔(Torah, Bible, Coran ) (French)〕 utilizing minute Hebrew letters to form representational, geometric and abstract designs. Colored micrography is especially distinctive because these rare artworks are customarily rendered in black and white. Micrography is also a classic feature in Parkinson's disease. People with Parkinson's disease often have an increasingly small handwriting (micrography) with reduced letter size which worsens throughout the sentence〔Grosset, D.G., Grosset, K.A., Okun, M.S. and H.H. Fernandez, Parkinson's Disease: Clinician's desk reference. Third impression 2011, London; Manson Publishing Ltd, P 28-9.〕 == Description == The artwork is created from text that forms an image when viewed at a distance, creating an interplay between the text and image. The Photomosaic, whose tiny individual images form a mosaic when viewed from a distance, is a modern analogue.
