Stoking Embers (Deliverance series),
A collection of abstract scenes show embers in varying colours, cross-stitched on canvas. Across the world, cross-stitching has been a means of conveying stories, beliefs and cultural identities. In the eastern Mediterranean, this art form is interwoven with the region’s history, reflecting the influence of Byzantine, Ottoman and Arab cultures. Its importance lies not only in the creation of beautiful and durable textiles but also in its deep cultural significance.
