There is an example of one word and how its letters are dissected, because when the calligraphy is subjected to dissection, it turns into an art form, “drawing.” The dissection is from four sides and helps the learner look at the interior spaces and Externally, you see square, rectangular, circular, and triangular shapes, and you see shapes as if they are part of the drawing.
