Whispers of Legacy

This collection explores the dialogue between Jordan’s tangible and intangible heritage. Textures of stone, fabric, and architectural detail merge with the unseen layers of memory, craft, and ancestral knowledge. Each piece reflects how heritage lives both in what we hold and what we carry within a weaving of material presence and cultural spirit. Through warm tones and intricate patterns, the works embody a timeless narrative that connects the physical with the symbolic, honoring Jordan’s enduring legacy.

Heritage is reflected in public buildings and housing, places of worship, traditional clothing and textiles, agricultural and animal husbandry practices, food preparation and preservation techniques, hunting and fishing equipment, tools and methods used in various crafts, means of transportation, construction tools and housing types, as well as handicrafts including textiles, woodwork, pottery, ceramics, glass, and jewelry.

Intangible heritage includes language in the form of folk stories, prose, poetry, and literature; proverbs, riddles, anecdotes, chants, and songs linked to life events such as birth, marriage, and mourning; popular customs and traditions; religious practices and beliefs including the pillars of Islam and faith; folk beliefs about saints, supernatural beings, magic, dreams, and folk medicine; as well as folk arts like dabke, music for different occasions, and popular games.
