Description
Overview
Whisper (2023) is a Giorgetti rug in bamboo silk and wool, tufted by hand. Its shape is irregular.
Construction
Threads of wool and of bamboo silk go into a canvas one at a time, with the material and the colour alternating, which forms the organic curves of the motif.
Specifications
- Version: GA428, handtufted rug in bamboo silk and wool
- Irregular shape
- Size: custom, no limitations
Story
A colour spot
The organic lines of the different material sections and the irregular perimeter bring back the image of a colour spot. This makes Whisper an artefact with artistic value, capable of characterising the environment.
Shiny and matt
The combination of bamboo silk and wool creates a shiny/matt effect that shimmers under the light.
