The Open Weave series centers on gauze, symbolizing protection, care, and healing. Gauze’s open weave and delicate

structure reflects the fragile and fleeting nature of our memories.

This ongoing series explores the symbolic, abstract language of the unconscious mind. Nazli engages with this authentic

language by incorporating water into her creative process. She creates wax forms in the water and fluid patterns by

using the marbling technique. The process of working with water serves as a way to tap into the unconscious mind and

uncover traces of the past. Later, she treats her discoveries with gauze to preserve them.
