Artwork title : Intertwined Polarities #4

Intertwined Polarities series endeavors to create a visualization of an inner spiritual code. The tactile elements of the weaving are to evoke and express complementary intuitive, sensory, mental, and cultural insights via recurring visual metaphors. 
I grew up in a part of the world that has been and continues to be an arena of clashes the interweaving of threads from different cultures and civilizations, including a constant stream of oriental and occidental crisscrossing. I am intrigued by observing how humanity has been influenced by these cultures and civilizations old and new. 
In the selected weavings I try to capture various spiritual transformations and psychological restructurings the variable, the persistent, and the transient of the human condition at the crossroads. This series constitutes a phase in my exploration of this coexistence of clashing forces. My constant search for self-expression involves mapping images to a woven template, involving an age-old path including horizontal and vertical lines, a grid, handtied knots, dots, and the notion of a pixel. 
Hence, a natural outgrowth of this series that is in development entails a live artistic performance where these elements interact.
