Samarkhand Echoes
Echoes of the Silk Road, carried home in clay and memory.
This work was inspired by ceramic trays I encountered during a recent journey through Uzbekistan. In the bustling markets of Samarkand and Bukhara, traditional ceramics carrying these dot patterns left me mesmerized and hooked.
While I am not a ceramic artist, I decided to bring the same ceramic dots to the wooden surface I work on. The teal background and subtle gold highlights bring out the aged glazes and gentle patina often seen on historic Central Asian ceramics.
Not meant to be a replica, this beginner level artwork is a memory of that journey.

Made to order
The surface of this piece is built through raised ceramic dot work applied onto a smooth wooden tray. Each raised dot and pattern cluster is placed to create concentric rhythms that interact with light and leave behind shadows. Once the texture was complete, the surface was layered with washes of teal tones to create depth, followed by selective dry brushing of antique gold to highlight the highest points of the relief. A resin coat was finally applied to make it usable.
This work is the first of a new exploration journey with relief work.
