Whispers of the Taj
11 1/4” x 7 1/2” x 5/8”
Ceramic wall art, cold finished with mirrors, beads, and rhinestones
This piece is inspired by the intricate jali patterns found at the entrance of the Taj Mahal. Referencing the delicate latticework of Mughal architecture and Islamic geometry, the design is slip-trailed with clay and brought to life with shimmering mirrors and accents. The mirrored elements reflect light like the marble surfaces of the Taj, creating a quiet dialogue between solidity and transparency, history and modernity.
