Story behind the thread technique

This artistic technique forms a bridge between two different worlds, combining ancient Greek mythology and Islamic culture in a captivating artistic scene. Looking at Greek mythology, we find that the golden thread used by the hero Theseus to escape the Minotaur's labyrinth symbolizes ambition and challenge, leading to freedom and salvation. In contrast, in Islamic culture, we find the "threads of destiny" that connect life's events to God's providence, giving them a deep meaning of guidance, free will, and empowerment. With each thread carefully torn and guided, a map is intricately woven to describe the precise details of the future and destiny. Consequently, this artistic technique enchantingly resembles the craft of destiny-making. Just as an artist skillfully directs and coordinates threads to create exceptional artworks, a fate-maker manipulates events and temporal threads to craft unique life paths. It's a process that harmonizes meticulous design with artisanal choices to shape destinies.
