Bio:
Swedish rya carpets from the 1960s and 70s combine traditional craftsmanship with the principles of modernist art. Textile designers of the period frequently explored graphic forms, bold colour fields and abstract motifs, using the deep wool pile to create texture and visual depth. Today, these handwoven carpets are regarded as iconic examples of Scandinavian textile design.
