About the ișura: Treasure of Abundance

When I look at Treasure of Abundance, what strikes me first is how much is happening across the surface. Circles repeat.

 

Colours interrupt one another. Pieces of Adire and coffee-dyed textile overlap until it becomes difficult to isolate one fragment from everything around it.

 

While making it, I became interested in accumulation. One thing beside another, then another, until separate fragments began to produce a sense of fullness.

 

That made me reconsider what abundance means to me. We often recognise it through quantity, money or possession, but I kept thinking about things that have made my own life feel full without being easily measured—family, memory, food, conversation, culture and time.

 

The painting is assembled from separate fragments, yet when I stand back from it, I don't experience lack. I experience fullness.

It leaves me wondering whether abundance always requires acquiring more, or whether it can also begin by recognising the value already present.

Material / Process

Coffee is used here as a staining material rather than simply as an image or reference. I work the coffee-dyed textile together with Adire through cutting, layering and bonding onto canvas. The process allows colour, stain, pattern and surface to build the work physically, while tea and coffee enter the work in different ways: one through remembered ritual, the other also as material.
