Boucherouite rug

Item details. Vintage from the 1970s. Materials. Recycled cloth, wool, cotton, fabric scraps. Boucherouite. The boucherouite is a style of rug free from traditional models, an exciting visual diary of the berber woman’s sensory experience of life. The boucherouite can sometimes rise to the level of art. The weaver’s feelings, essentially her ego, are on display in pieces and fragments. Her complex emotions are at once revealed and encoded in bold contrasting color, and a vigorously patterned, wonderfully textural field.
