Kỹ thuật: Embroidery
Dana Awartani’s eight hanging embroideries, Love is my Law, Love is my Faith are inspired by eight love poems by Ibn Arabi that describe an experience he had at the Ka’aba in Mecca. They are intricate, meticulously patterned and steeped in the study of mathematics. Her practice and this project is a continual act of the revival of the practices of Islamic geometry and its highly codified forms. Using the practice of traditional textiles Awartani creates genealogies of meaning that act as a form of meditation, praying, contemplation and search for the inner spirit rather than outer. Her works are a visual representation of a culturally specific time and space.
