A fragment of stillness

A pause. A breath. A fragment of stillness between thoughts.
This textile artwork belongs to the Constructed Presence series-a body of work exploring geometry, rhythm and quiet human presence.

Layers of reclaimed textiles and paint create a soft geometry: structured yet intimate. Within the outline of a woman’s silhouette, fabric and light are coming together, balancing precision with warmth. The materials like silk, rich velvets paper and wood carry their own past, now transformed into a single, silent composition.

Geometry of emotion

The work studies how structure and emotion can coexist. Its lines are measured, but not mechanical. Its palette is warm, inviting the eye to rest, to slow down. Between the edges of form and fabric lies the space where thought becomes texture and where silence turns visible.

This textile artwork invites for quiet observation. It holds a a visual pause that belongs as much to the viewer as to the maker.
