His scientific inventions include a machine for three – dimensional drawings and his research led him to develop a type setting of Arabic alphabet suitable for printing without losing its aesthetic value. Tamari’s art exudes Oriental transparency and sensitivity and has a highly personal style, concealing a cerebral quality within its visual beauty.
