Patterns
HARI-NO KOHITSUJI(Lamb Figure on the Stained-Glass Window)
We opened the door of a cathedral, a full of sunshine coming in, through the stained-glass windows of a stone building, only my footsteps echoed in the soundless.
In the Middle Ages Europe, a stained-glass window was not merely a decoration but to symbolize a holy light to the places for prayers. The design of this brocade consists of the lamb symbolizing Jesus, as the Son of God, and the flowing vines. We used gold threads to the halo of the lambs and the flowers, to effect as if they were coming up in the dim light at a cathedral.
Here, the breathtaking beautiful world of brilliant colors that the stained glass produces, were made into warp-patterned brocade by our exquisite weaving technique with the classical color yarns.
TEPE-NO HITSUJI(SHEEP DESIGN OF TEPE)
In Iran, the world's oldest pictured potteries have been found in TEPE (historical hill in Persian) created by the local people with their own designs. The motifs were animals and the geometric patterns drawn rhythmically and on the rich individuality.
Here, we have focused on the designs of the sheep that have lived with human beings since the ancient days and the geometric patterns drawn on the surface of the potteries excavated in Iranian Highland, both of the motifs are enclosed in the separate stripes, and yet composing one big stripe pattern.
We have woven the historical patterns, yet looking elegant in the modern society, into the warp-patterned brocade in our own color-way and exquisite weaving technique.
