Description

Silk Scarf “Palais Jacques Coeur” : blue 90×90 cm

by Stella Polare Artiste, Paris. 

This designer silk scarf created in Paris and part of the Silk Road collection. It is the fruit of working

You see a scarf. I see my roots.

This design is inspired by traditional Uzbek cotton motifs — their rhythms, repetitions, and symbolic geometry. Within this composition, the artist reinterprets these patterns through a contemporary lens, transforming them into a living visual language.

Concept

This composition unfolds as a threshold between worlds.

Inspired by Palais Jacques Cœur, the architectural form at the center is not reproduced but transformed into a distant presence — a memory rather than a monument.

The scene is framed by two vertical structures that resemble open portals. They hold hybrid figures — animals and imaginary creatures — drawn from the language of medieval bestiaries. Here, they act as witnesses, guardians of passage.

A bridge crosses the lower part of the composition, introducing movement. It suggests transition rather than destination — a space where one state becomes another.

Above, a horizontal rhythm of stripes and animal figures unfolds like a silent procession. These forms evoke circulating thoughts, memories in motion.

The deep blue background creates a sense of depth and interiority, while the red structures introduce tension and structure. The pale lines remain as traces — like fragments of a story that resurface.

This is not a representation of a place.
It is a constructed space of perception.

From this emerges:

a landscape of memory
a passage between visible and invisible
a silent narrative woven into form

The scarf becomes a surface where architecture, imagination, and movement converge.

Artistic Vision

Stella Polare or Khulkar Yunusova is a French-Uzbek contemporary artist based in Paris.
Her work develops around a central concept: “vitaculture” — the urgency of joy as a conscious, aesthetic, and existential act.

Her artistic practice bridges:

• language and image
• East and West
• personal history and collective memory

Her work has been presented at UNESCO, the Louvre, and Palais Jacques Cœur (carte blanche, 2021), among others. The same year 2021 she was invited to the Parole des Femmes, public talk at the House of the Great French writer, Maison de George Sand

Why a scarf

For Stella Polare, the scarf is not a simple accessory.
It is a symbol of emancipation and transformation.

It carries multiple layers of meaning:

• a continuation of textile heritage
• a transformation of traditional motifs into contemporary art
• a reflection on invisible histories embedded in materials
  a dialogue between ornament and identity

The cotton motif, once part of collective production, becomes here an individual gesture — reinterpreted, displaced, and reactivated.
