Sky - Afghanistan
$112.50 $150.00
Purchasing Turquoise Mountain supports entrepreneurship, small business growth and will help to strengthen the Afghan economy.
The delicate floral motifs in this exquisite work derive from the decorative illumination found in traditional Persian miniature painting. Typically, illumination forms the decorative sections around important letters or blocks of text, or fills the margins as a colorful frame for the central image. Here however, the artist has made illumination the subject of the work, filling all but a small hole in the center with these beautiful but painstaking patterns. Like the swirls and eddies of clouds in a blue sky, the repeated patterns create a kind of meditation, drawing the eye to the empty center as a point of stillness and contemplation.
Paper: 2-color silkscreen on white Arches Cover paper, 200 gsm.
Dimensions: 33cm h. x 24 cm. w.
Edition of 100.
