This "Melted" and Pixelated Rug

by Faig Ahmed

[johnthestitcher]

I love the 'melting' one!

Faig Ahmed is renowned for his mesmerizing textile pieces. He completed his most recent carpet design after months of interruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. This remarkable red tapestry, ‘Doubts’, features intricate patterns that dissolve into a viscous fluid shape, framed by white tassels.

Ahmed’s contemporary carpets are based on traditional textile craftsmanship, which he then deconstructs and reimagines in new and exciting ways.

Gallery Artworks Reimagined as Surreal Carpet Art Melting Off the Wall Onto the Floor

When walking through a gallery, you usually see artworks on the walls…not the floor. Well, studio Cre.a.i.tive explores what it would look like when a textile work extends across the ground. Using artificial intelligence, they produced an entire gallery of artworks that take up multiple surfaces.

The series, titled The Reflections of Lost Thoughts Art Gallery is inspired by the textile art of Faig Ahmed, who is known for creating surreal carpets that “melt” into puddles. While Ahmed's pieces have a traditional aesthetic, the AI versions from Cre.a.i.tive appear to possess an abstract quality. All of the works within the collection have a figurative quality, depicting a range of faces.
