Universe Breath

Knowing the name of a type of mosaic is a difficult question.
In this case I found it here

Lustre tiles from Iran, probably Kashan, 1262. The tiles are in the shapes of the Sufi symbols for the divine breath, the octagon for breathing out, the cross for breathing in; the two fit together as a tessellation, an example of an Islamic geometric pattern. 

Here, my, simple, modification

The Divine Breath is one of the simplest and most beautiful Islamic mosaics. In Tah Majal, in India, in Iran and in Spain it is visible. I present here a discontinuous version which violates the implicit rule of continuity of lines in these mosaics. We create a gap every 2 lines and 2 columns and the result is the artwork. If octagon is for breathing out, and the cross for breathing in, the cross is now quintupled. It is one of the hundreds of modifications of classical mosaics made by me recently.

breath

In the Universe the exhalation is greater because the universe expands. Hence, the title breath of the Universe. Understanding this earliest of eras in the history of the universe is one of the greatest unsolved problems in physicsThis exhalation or breath of the Universe gives a theory opposite to Hoyle's theory (steady-state) of the continuous creation of matter: the Universe expands because the vacuum is growing. Can it be?

Do you need a new or classic arabic mosaic? I sell them. Maybe an exhibition? In the Alhambra?
