Tufted rugs by Rosie Eisor — Each piece is one of a kind and it comes with a certificate of authenticity and blockchain registration — Get in touch for sales, inquiries and collaborations!
Hand-tufted rug, a product of my residency at AiR Sandnes, emerged from a research on forms and landscapes. The exploration, however, took an unexpected turn, leading the artwork towards a more abstract representation.
During the creation of that series of rugs, I found myself utterly captivated by the enthralling animalistic symbols and mythical tales originating from the city of Milan. Throughout my residency at the VIAFARINI studio, I successfully crafted representations of both the Biscone and the Wild Swine, two characteristic beasts with strong connections to Milan.
I am thankful for the chance to take part in VIR Viafarini-in-residence, as it became possible through the support extended by the National Culture Fund of Bulgaria.
Throughout my residency at VIAFARINI studio, I created two experimental rugs. By deconstructing an existing carpet and incorporating vivid abstract forms in intense colors, I aimed to create a juxtaposition of past and present.
The rug portrays the mystical serpent, a powerful symbol of the divine feminine’s universal earth energy. Across local Bulgarian folklore and worldwide beliefs, the snake has been a crucial figure with profound mythological importance. In ancient times, people often linked snakes with healing. As an embodiment of chaos, fertility, and wisdom, the snake represents both fire and water, earthly and divine, as well as death and rebirth.

Стефан Иванов за С ТЕБ:
"Думи и въпроси във въздуха и по стени, на запис, плат и хартия – за възможния разговор и желаната среща. За грижата и омразата, за отговорността и липсата ѝ. За трудността да видиш лицето на човек, познат или непознат."
