The ‘mémoire d’une trame’ rug calls on the traditional technique of hand knotting to achieve a meticulously detailed visual effect of a macrophotographic representation of a multicoloured weave. The delicacy of the motif and the subtlety of the shade associations leave this rug wide open to individual interpretation: are they an accumulation of little houses, or stylised directional arrows perhaps?
The superposition of inlaid patterns produces an optical effect similar to an oscillating band passing across a screen or the moiré effect of a shifting optokinetic pattern.
