Mathematics, color and magic intertwined: fascination with the hand loom
The main inspiration for WEAVE rugs lies in highlighting the different of mathematical sequences that can be carried out on a hand loom through a suggestive collage of textures and geometric patterns of found colors.
The shapes and colors are arranged in the warp as if they were a work of abstract art. But it is worth examining each piece closely to discover that the weave at certain times varies, even within a single color block. This modifies its texture, bringing different depths to the colors, an effect that is difficult to achieve with other media.
“It is important in design to listen, not only to the material, but also to accompany the hands that create the piece. It is always a magical moment and opens up wonderful opportunities. Art, after all, resides in the eyes of each individual.”
