Woman with a Mediterranean Palm

Dyed and natural cotton, jute & wool, 85 x 125 cm, 875 USD

This tapestry unites two traditional motifs of protection: The Hand of Fatima and the Evil Eye. Placed on the palm of the hand, the Evil Eye suggests the warm caressing feeling of a prayer. This piece is a tribute to Turkish writer Ece Temelkuran’s best-selling novel Women Who Blow on Knots, a story of empowered women.
