Looking For A Sign

Looking For A Sign, 2022, Sadaf special blend tea with cardamom, gold thread

Looking For A Sign is an assemblage of tea bags stitched together conveying memories, events, and visions of the future. Gathered from a daily ritual of tea-drinking, it constitutes a personal tasseography. Gold threads reference Persian folklore of magic carpets, suggesting journeys across space and time. The translucent quality of the tapestry evokes a window, a portal, or a gestational period.
