Lighthouse

In this work, I wanted to try to convey the "voluted tapestry" effect. To achieve this similarity, you need to paste individual segments of paper strips very close to each other, alternating shades, achieving smooth transitions. To imitate woven threads, I corrugated each strip. And the plot, of course, I carefully selected according to the symbolic meaning. The lighthouse is a symbol of the right path and hope. In the spiritual aspect, the lighthouse is a symbol of leadership from above. By analogy with the "guide star," the lighthouse symbolizes hope moving in darkness and looking for a way, and figuratively its Way and purpose. The shape of the structure also speaks about this: the lighthouse is one of the types of tower. And the tower, in turn, represents the axis of the world, the connection of the earth with the sky, ascent and spiritual growth. The picture is in a single copy, exact repetition is impossible. The whole composition is made of strips of Korean and Japanese paper in quilling techniques. Visually has the effect of volume and style of the tapestry. Decorated in a white deep frame under the ester glass. You can put it on a shelf or hang it on a wall. Series of paintings "Lighthouse", "Mel" and "Bridge"
