Qurama

Qurama
This piece is dedicated to Lalek khanim and Mezahir bey Avshars, painters and sculptors, friends of my family. Both had an impact on me as an artist.
Qurama is an ancient handicraft of Azerbaijan, a kind of patchwork made of cloth scraps of various sizes and colors. The etymology of the word qurama also contains a meaning closer to construction in English.Ideas of working with different shapes and colors, adding multiple layers on top of each other or subtracting, separating them, exploring different time concepts and listening experiences are important to the compositional processes of this piece.
