"Looking Through a Broken Diamond" by Keyishian reveals two interconnected worlds through her signature cellular patterns. The upper portion glows with warm concentric rings that echo traditional Middle Eastern and Eastern European ornamental designs. These forms suggest a celestial dance, like stars or lanterns suspended in the sky.
Below, the composition transitions into a marine realm where the circular forms become more geometric, taking on square and rectangular shapes. The dualities within the piece speak to the experience of existing between worlds, where different cultural traditions and memories coexist and influence each other, creating something both familiar and new.
