The circle has always been an interesting shape for me. This project started off as many symbols and iconography since 2012 with inspiration taken from my surroundings here in the UAE. The circle represents the notions of wholeness perfection and eternity, timeless and infinity.
I chose my geometric Camel for this project working with FBMI and developing a design for the carpet. The symbol itself has been deconstructed within the mandala shape, and re-constructed anew in the final work.
