G'day folks,
The Azerbaijani tradition of weaving
carpets is one of the most ancient arts and crafts of the country and
dates as far back as the 2nd millennium BC. Because of their high
aesthetic value, these vibrant carpets have been used in Azerbaijan to
cover floors, decorate interior walls, sofas, chairs, beds, and even
tables.
Faig Ahmed is an
internationally recognized artist from Baku, Azerbaijan who is known for
turning these classic rugs into impressive contemporary works of art.
"His works reimagine ancient crafts and create new visual boundaries by
deconstructing traditions and stereotypes," reads the description on
Faig Ahmed's Facebook page.
Usually, his mesmerizing carpets begin as a classic pattern, but then turn into an obstacle or glitch. Some rugs get turned into pixelated versions of themselves, some melt into a multicolor swirl, and some get remade into unique-looking mandalas. The list goes on. And no matter what this artist decides to create, each of his pieces turns out absolutely stunning.
Now, let's see his talented works ...
