In the Krolevets weaving tradition, certain motifs appear again and again across centuries of towels — guardian birds facing each other across a central axis, geometric forms that mark the threshold between the ordinary and the protected.
Keepers draws from that visual language. Black and white, minimal, the symbols stripped back to their essential shapes. The birds are still there. So is what they're guarding.
It lives well in calm, considered spaces — somewhere the quietness of the image has room to work.
