SON AKSAM YEMEGI

Son Akşam Yemeği

This carpet is a faithful homage to one of the most profound moments in human history.

Depicted here is the final meal shared by Jesus and his disciples — a moment suspended between unity and separation, revelation and silence. The composition remains true to the original narrative: Christ sits at the center, calm and composed, as the disciples around him react with disbelief, confusion, and quiet fear to the words that will change everything — that one among them will betray him.

Each figure carries a distinct emotional response. Some lean forward in urgency, others withdraw in shock, while a few remain frozen in contemplation. The table becomes more than a physical setting; it is a threshold between the earthly and the divine, between fellowship and sacrifice.

Handwoven entirely from silk, this interpretation transforms a painted masterpiece into a tactile, enduring form. The softness of the weave lends the scene a rare intimacy, allowing the viewer to feel the humanity within the moment — the fragility of loyalty, the weight of destiny, and the silence that follows truth.

The architectural perspective remains intact, drawing the eye inward toward the central figure, reinforcing balance, symmetry, and spiritual focus. The surrounding border acts as a frame of reverence, preserving the sanctity of the scene without intrusion.

This carpet does not reinterpret the story. It preserves it.

It stands as a testament to faith, devotion, and the power of narrative carried across centuries — from wall to canvas, from canvas to silk. It is not merely an artwork, but a continuation of a legacy, woven with humility and respect.

This is a piece created for those who understand that some stories are not meant to be changed — only honored.
