A unique object. Hand-made in London. Unused.
Exhibited:
Michael Young, Grand Hornu, Belgium, 2016

“I have worked with Christopher Farr (a handmade carpet company) for almost twenty years, and this piece to me is the best work we have made to date, both the design and the process. The project was first shown at an event created by Wallpaper Magazine called “Hand-Made in London”, which was organised to raise awareness for the Middle East, where the Tekke (Turkmen tribe) craft technique is being eroded by war and displacement. Conceptually, I have always been a fan of the oil and water visualisations made in the sixties by Pink Floyd, and with this I have tried to capture it in just a moment.”
