ABOUT STUDIO
Meet Lubna Irfan
Latibule Art Studio was founded by Lubna Irfan as a space where creativity, culture, and learning come together. Based in Melbourne, the studio offers art workshops, cultural experiences, original artworks, art kits, and creative resources designed to inspire people of all ages.
Drawing on a background in design, visual arts, and creative education, Lubna enjoys helping people explore new artistic skills in a welcoming and engaging environment. Her workshops are designed to be accessible to beginners while offering meaningful creative experiences for participants with varying levels of experience.
A particular focus of the studio is Islamic geometric art, Arabic calligraphy, and contemporary painting, with a deep fascination for sacred letterforms expressed through both Arabic calligraphy and modern English lettering. Through workshops and creative resources, Latibule Art Studio introduces these art forms in ways that encourage creativity, cultural appreciation, and personal expression.
Lubna holds a Master of Advertising and Communication Design from RMIT University, Melbourne.
