What's the story behind this piece?
This piece emerged during a collage workshop at Los Raros/Las Raras in Valladolid, hosted by Max-o-matic and Cless. The theme for this one was "Simplicity," which pushed me to strip away excess and focus on essential elements—fabric, light, form. What began as an exercise in material exploration became something more—a meditation on concealment and chaos that felt worth developing further. Sometimes the most compelling work comes from moments of creative experimentation, where you're responding intuitively to materials and discovering what emerges. The title and conceptual framework came later, as I reflected on what the piece had already revealed about itself.

What do you especially like about this piece?
What draws me to this piece is the tension between concealment and revelation. The fabric obscures the figure while becoming its own sculptural form, creating a visual language that's both intimate and distant. I'm interested in how it refuses clarity—existing in that space between the visible and hidden, the ghayb. The monochromatic palette strips everything down to texture, light, and gesture, while the draped material creates 'abath—a beautiful chaos, disorder with clear intention.
