Artwork
This textile work unfolds like a landscape remembered in fragments - an imagined topography shaped by time, erosion, and quiet growth. Through the tactile language of tufting, organic forms emerge: clusters of foliage, veins of flowing water, layers of sediment and stone. Varying in height, density, and texture, each element contributes to a terrain that blurs the boundary between the botanical and the geological. Soft pastels dissolve into deep, resonant blues, suggesting a place both real and dreamlike. The viewer is invited to drift through this layered world - where forest fades into desert, where moss brushes the edge of an unseen current. Here, nature is not merely represented, but reimagined: a sensory field where memory and material intertwine.
