Olive Archipelago — Beni Mrirt Organic Field
Olive Archipelago — Beni Mrirt Organic Field
Olive Archipelago — Beni Mrirt Organic Field (320 × 438 cm)
A statement Beni Mrirt in dense, velvety pile: olive ground punctuated by sculpted ivory islands. The drawing is biomorphic and architectural at once—broad shapes, crisp edges, and a quiet sheen that catches light. The profile is clean with bound edges for a contemporary finish.
Glyph Reading
The organic field registers echo Amazigh land–water memory—meanders, terraces, and protected enclosures. Islands of negative space create a rhythm of shelter and passage; the open ground holds calm. Energetically, this composition grounds large rooms while introducing warm, expansive flow.
