The orbs and stars float on a black background, with a symmetrical arrangement that can only be seen in a large print, as the pattern is very large. The designs in the orbs and stars are all made from photographs taken in Turkey or in museums around the world featuring Ottoman or Islamic art. Most of the patterns come from tiles, especially tiles in the Topkapi palace in Istanbul. There are also patterns made from doors, ceilings, and stained glass windows. We took photographs of the tiles and other architectural details, and then used mirror flipping, overlays, and rotations in computer programs to create interesting patterns, and then created stars and orbs and squares out of those.
