Nanimarquina Silhouette rug

Needless to say, Jaime Hayon's touch is unmistakable! From the first look at this rug, we recognize his relaxed, cheerful, dreamy and exuberant style. Thin, sinuous lines intertwine to form nine tangled faces. This playful and abundant composition draws our imagination. The portraits are punctuated with light touches of color. Each face is drawn from a different angle so that the rug can be admired from any side. Between abstraction and figurative: at first glance, the flowing, intuitive lines intertwine to form an abstract pattern. With a closer look, the chimerical characters take shape. Jaime Hayon wanted to give this rug the look of sketches scribbled in a notebook.

"It's a freehand drawing, similar to the work in my notebooks. There's an infinite number of characters that are part of my imagination. They change and evolve, depending on my interests at the time. There are endearing characters, others more humorous and some are even scary at times."

With the Silhouette rug, Nanimarquina introduces for the first time the technique of embroidery on kilim, a meticulous handwork in which chain stitch embroidery adds texture and a soft volume that emphasizes the sinuous character of the illustration. The great precision of the motifs allows a faithful reproduction of Jaime Hayon's original designs.
