Textile on a wall is not a backdrop.
It is a memory you practice daily.
This wall work holds embroidery as surface rather than ornament.
Lambani embroidery, when placed on the wall, does not become decoration. It becomes field — dense stitchwork building texture and rhythm across cloth through sustained hand movement. The surface carries weight, not lightness; repetition, not pattern alone.
This piece arises from Lambani embroidery — a surface language of stitches and mirrors that refracts the weight of time and travel, not trend. Born in a tradition that embroidered movement and meaning, each motif is a layered trace, echoing seasons and serving as witness to the living life it once traveled with.
Here, color is not merely bright — it is ancestral cadence. Geometry is not pattern alone — it is lived orientation. And mirrors do more than catch light — they catch presence. To hang this piece is to welcome a textile that was, and remains, shaped by hand, memory, and return.
Variation in stitch tension, spacing, and surface relief remains visible as evidence of time spent and attention held. These qualities are not corrected. They are the reason the work carries presence rather than polish.
This piece does not demand attention. It holds it — quietly, through return rather than display.
This is embroidery as surface, not embellishment.
Invite it into a place that does not just decorate, but continues.
