Ancestral Geometry





Ancestral Geometry
Series:
Great Grandma’s Patterns
Description:
Ancestral Geometry is an original oil painting on stretched canvas inspired by the quilt-making tradition of my great-grandmother. This artwork continues the Great Grandma’s Patterns series, reinterpreting the symbolic grids, borders, and motifs found in heirloom quilts.
The piece features rich earthy tones, bold linear structures, and abstract geometry that together honor the vibrancy and order of ancestral wisdom. It speaks to the power of pattern and structure in both fabric and life, celebrating resilience, identity, and generational memory.
By reviving and evolving these patterns, Ancestral Geometry keeps a sacred legacy alive and empowers through repetition of the forms passed down by my great-grandmother’s hands.
