Kour Pour — Tetris
Kour Pour

Tetris

Kour Pour's *Tetris* is a vibrant acrylic work on canvas laid on panel that draws on the artist's signature method of merging geometric abstraction with references to textile traditions and cultural pattern-making. Interlocking angular forms cascade across the surface, evoking the stacked, color-blocked shapes of the iconic video game while simultaneously resonating with the hand-woven structures of Persian and Asian rugs. The result is a richly layered composition that bridges digital visual language with the meditative craft of historical decorative arts.
