The Compound

The Compound

An embroidered patchwork map, composed of traditional Shabbat napkins, is interwoven with delicate letters and illustrations that are absorbed into the language of embroidery. The work offers a renewed look at the Russian Compound as a layered space of history, culture, and memory. The illustrations weave into the textile sketches of buildings, architectural details, and local symbols, revealing the hidden layers of the place through a combined act of embroidery and unraveling.
