While creating this work, I reflected on how cultural memory shapes our identity.
In times of instability, traditions, visual codes, and symbols often become a source of inner support.
Through ornament and symbolic elements, I explore how art helps preserve a connection to heritage, sustain a sense of identity, and find resilience in uncertain times.
My process began with research into traditional ornament, symbolic forms, and visual codes connected to cultural memory.
Using Midjourney, I developed a series of visual experiments focused on mask-like structures, texture, and symbolism.
Through selection and refinement, I shaped the final image as a contemporary interpretation of identity, heritage, and resilience.
