Just a gesture. A precise cut that cleaves the white canvas and opens a passage into the infinite. The new Lama rug by Carpet Edition gives textile form to the lesson conveyed by Lucio Fontana in Concetto spaziale, Attesa, where the cut is not an end, but rather the beginning of a new dimension in space, the unknown and mysterious perspective of what lies beyond.<\/p>\n
The designer of Lama is Margherita Fanti, who with this creation lends renewed strength, through a contemporary reinterpretation, to the most emblematic expression of Spatialism. The project becomes a declaration of intent: to shorten the distance between art and design until they converge. The cut, sharp and immediate, cuts into the \u201cwhite space\u201d of Lama and asserts itself as a revealing act. Colour emerges decisively, the material opens to unveil hidden threads, while the surface, now traversed by that essential gesture, gains depth, transforming into a living, vibrant object.<\/p>\n
The new hand-tufted Lama rug is made of New Zealand wool and is available in two different shapes developed through a masterful balance of contrasts.<\/p>\n
The first proposal takes shape as a dynamic dialogue between two different cut pile heights (10 and 14 mm), and between rigor and softness, where sharp, regular angles, highlighted by a black portion, contrast with rounded profiles. The diagonal cut, finished with black linen fringes, accentuates the profound contrast between the purity of white and the dark intensity of the insert. The same cut also appears in the round version, characterized by irregular profiles. In this model, the combination of loop and cut pile techniques, together with the two different pile heights (10 and 14 mm), amplifies the perception of depth, giving the rug a rich material dimension.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
