Contemporary Boujaad in undyed ivory, carved in high/low relief: broad chevrons and stepped bands form a centered
X-axis over subtle sage striped channels. The result is tactile topography—velvety ridges that catch the light—paired
with a clean, bound-edge profile for a modern read.
Glyph Reading
The crossed axes and nested chevrons act as Amazigh wayfinding and protection—thresholds, gates, and return.
Linear sage registers read as water lines, softening the geometry. Energetically, the piece grounds a large room,
organizes flow toward center, and invites calm, expansive breath.
