1996 Chillida Gravitación Tinta Rug by Nanimarquina

Description

This indoor rug, inspired by the artwork of Eduardo Chillida, beautifully pays homage to his collage Gravitación Tinta 1996. The Gravitaciones series, which were not your typical overlapping paper cut-outs, were instead relief sculptures. With a playful touch, Chillida pushed the concept of gravitating to the limit, as the light paper almost seemed weightless. Through the suspension of various types of paper, he achieved a striking effect, creating spaces of light and shadow as the fragments overlapped or intercalated. Capturing this tension was our main focus in transforming his work into a luxurious rug using traditional techniques, different fibers, and varying heights.
