Adobe explores the humble earthen architecture of dwelling spaces through the etching medium with warmth and reverence. The work celebrates vernacular building traditions and their connection to specific geographic and cultural places. Adnan's treatment of adobe as subject matter reflects her deep engagement with landscape, architecture, and human habitation across different cultures. The etching process allows her to render the materiality and texture of earth-based construction with particular sensitivity.
