The ephemeral work of American artist Eva Hesse uses fluid gestures and organic materials to create works that change over time. Inspired by Hesse’s “Expanded Expansion,” Sway evokes the movement of draped fabric with a repeating motif of contrasting wools, creating a tufted rug of depth and texture.
This collection elevates textiles to living art. Inspired by Arte Povera, a Post-War Italian art movement that used simple materials to create works of artistic expression, each rug is an homage to these visionary artists—transcending the boundaries between art and nature, artist and artisan.
The Atelier collection is a series of limited-edition pieces created and designed by Sylvie Johnson and the Merida team.
