Unyielding no3 – Abstract Gold Patchwork Painting Inspired by Topography and Sashiko

Unyielding No3 is a richly detailed abstract painting that combines modern expression with influences from traditional Japanese textiles and topographic design. Created with repeating lines, the composition mimics the stitched geometry of sashiko and the layered repair work seen in boro, evoking a sense of rhythm and resilience.

The painting’s structured surface is carefully disrupted by small fragments of shimmering gold paper, which introduce a delicate contrast and elevate the overall palette. These interruptions lend the work an almost architectural presence, as if mapping the interplay between precision and imperfection. The warm gold tones and dark ground form a striking yet harmonious contrast, making the work stand out in any space.

Acrylic on canvas with black sides and a generous depth, this piece is ready to hang and would suit a variety of interiors - from modern and minimal to richly layered and textural. The meditative quality of the repeated marks invites closer inspection, making Unyielding No3 as engaging up close as it is from afar.
