Aeon

A cycle in between absence and existence, one triangle empty, the next full. Negative and positive, void and full, silence and echo, light and dark repeating themselves in an endless journey with holes and nupps.

This shawl is a meditation on being, on the spaces we leave behind and the moments we fill. A continuous fractal path where each stitch whispers: you’re here, you’re gone, you’re here again.
