About the creator
- Aun Shraideh (b. July 23, 1997) is a Jordanian artist known for his multi-layered wooden reliefs that investigate depth, rhythm, and the subtle movement created through layered forms. His practice draws inspiration from filigree craftsmanship, regional pattern traditions, and the expressive clarity of geometric design. Combining digitally guided precision with meticulous hand-finishing, Aun creates works that are both intricate in detail and serene in presence. With an engineering background and a lifelong passion for constructing and sketching, Aun approaches each artwork with a strong sense of structure. His pieces evolve gradually, layer by layer, where lines, curves, and shadows interact to form sculptural compositions that shift with changing viewpoints. Rooted in patience, repetition, and the meditative pace of slow construction, his work articulates a visual language defined by harmony, depth, and refined complexity.
Artistic Approach & Practice
Aun’s creative process unfolds gradually, layer by layer, allowing lines, curves, and shadows to interact and shift with changing perspectives. His practice values patience, repetition, and a slow, deliberate construction rhythm. Each piece is built through a careful interplay of digital modeling and manual craftsmanship, resulting in sculptural compositions that invite viewers to experience movement within stillness.
Educational Background & Technical Foundation
Aun holds a B.Sc. in Industrial Engineering (Jordan), a background that plays a significant role in shaping his artistic method. His engineering training equipped him with a deep understanding of structure, systematic thinking, and digital modeling. These skills guide the way he dissects complex shapes, organizes patterns with clarity, and works through precision-driven workflows—forming the technical backbone of his layered wooden reliefs.
Design Philosophy & Influences
Rooted in his lifelong interest in building, drawing, and structural design, Aun’s work bridges craftsmanship with contemporary digital tools. Inspired by cultural ornamentation, geometric symmetry, and the meditative nature of repetition, he seeks to create artworks that evoke quiet movement and tactile depth. His pieces reflect a commitment to slow construction, thoughtful detail, and the harmony found within intentional layering.
