Ancestral Hunting Carpet, 2025

Weaved Bedouin carpet created in collaboration with Zam Stork and inspired by traditional hunting rugs. This woven carpet is a contemporary interpretation of how Bedouin people traditionally use textiles to decorate the interiors of their homes and tents, which are typically covered in carpets.
