Frank Stella, Damascus Gate: Variation1, 1969-70, acrylic on canvas
I by chance came across this object, I found a picture of it in a magazine,
and I find it so very very fascinating:
the title, the history behind it, the interlaced geometric forms, the colors, I completely fell in love with this piece.
So I made a patchwork - block, trying to capture these lines a bit…
I thought of gates that are open and gates that are closed when I made it.
