Terra Incognita, Ourosboros Carpet, Hand Knotted in Wool, 200kpi, Faberhama

About the Item

The experience of the journey leads to discover new lands along a path that winds from departure to arrival. Often, the final direction can coincide with the return, revealing a cyclical journey. The perception of the traveler changes through the different situations that he encounters along his journey; his vision of the world expands, marking the arrival of a new departure. Ouroboros, a dragon-snake that devours itself, represents the cyclic nature of all things. Symbol of introspection and thoughtful thinking, Ouroboros can be associated with all those things that, after having reached their end, start again, in an eternal return. In the rug, the knotted pattern first gradually reveals itself, accompanied by bright scales in bamboo silk, then dissolves under a long fringe and in the end it progressively redefines itself towards a new beginning, sculpting a circular path on a soft wool mantel (fireplace).

  • Terra Incognita, Phoenix Carpet, Hand Knotted in Wool, 200kpi, Faberhama
    By Faberhama
    Located in Milan, Lombardy
    In Asian lands, traditional buildings are characterized by the Jali, large half-closed architectural openings with perforated elements that allow light to filter into the interior. The windows conceal those who live inside and at the same time allow them to observe the outside world change as the light changes. Measures: 180 x 300 cm. Phoenix is a mythological bird that rises from its ashes in the fire, a symbol of spiritual rebirth and human regeneration. In different cultures his return is considered an auspicious event, associated with the rising of the sun and the beginning of a new period of prosperity and fertility. Its fiery plumage expands itself with warm colours like a sunlit landscape. Forming a feathered tail, red bows glide softly to the ends of the carpet and are knotted on wooden rods. With phoenix, the carpet becomes like a window on the world...
