The technique used in this artwork is gold leaf. Its support is a real turtle shell over a century old, found on the seashore during the Belgian colonial era in Congo. Measuring 70 cm by 80 cm, it references the divine golden ratio, representing the ultimate proportion. Every work fashioned by nature inherently holds this balance, this divine proportion symbolized by the golden ratio. The turtle shell was chosen with intention, as it embodies creation shaped by the Almighty. The calligraphic text, crafted in the shape of a drop, is none other than the Creator's profound demonstration, expressed in the sublime verse known as Ayat al-Kursi, the Throne Verse, which translates as follows: "Allah, there is no deity worthy of worship except Him, the Living, the Self-Sustaining; neither drowsiness nor sleep overtakes Him. To Him belongs everything in the heavens and on Earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is before them and what will be after them, and they encompass nothing of His knowledge except what He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the Earth, and preserving them does not fatigue Him. And He is the Most High, the Supreme." This unique creation thus pays tribute to divine wisdom by portraying the natural harmony and order of the universe.
