Writing est une série qui permet de mélanger le graffiti et la calligraphie. Tarek a grandi dans un univers artistique où le lettrage est très présent : l'univers du graffiti et sa culture arabe avec la calligraphie. Les toiles sont exclusivement composées de lettrages de toutes sortes sur des thèmes aussi différents que la rue, le pouvoir, la politique ou encore l'art. Sa pratique du graffiti quand il était plus jeune était surtout illégale et dans la rue. Avec cette exploration picturale, il a réussi, avec le temps, à créer un mode d'expression très personnel grâce aux lettrages issus de son imagination et à sa manière de composer ses œuvres. La lettre est au centre de cette série.
