This abstract artwork features a harmonious composition of geometric shapes and lines in a muted color palette of burgundy, pink, and gray. The dominant vertical and horizontal stripes create a sense of structure, while the subtle variations in hue and texture add visual interest.

Miranda Fengyuan Zhang approaches fabric as a vibrant storyteller, crafting woven landscapes that explore identity, memory, and the interplay between tradition and modernity. Her work elevates textile beyond craft, positioning it as a profound medium for personal and collective storytelling.
