Observing Patterns

This series explores the intricate workings of an analytical mind through meticulously crafted cross-stitch circles, each pattern symbolizing individual thoughts, memories, and emotional fragments. These patterned circles are layered with natural elements—such as leaves, branches, or stones—inviting a dialogue between logic and the organic flow of nature. Small figures appear throughout the work: some gazing at the patterns, others turned away, and some woven into the very fabric of the scenes. Their presence reflects the ways we interact with our own mental landscapes—sometimes engaged, sometimes detached, but always entwined. This series becomes a visual meditation on compartmentalization, illustrating how our inner worlds are structured, yet deeply connected. Ultimately, it is a portrait of the artist’s own mind, mapping the tension and harmony between order and intuition.
