Modern Persian Rugs Using Google Earth @odditycentral.com

Designer Creates Modern Persian Rugs Using Google Earth:

Hanauer first began working on his “Worldwide Carpets” project in 2008, after finding himself fascinated with Las Vegas’ uniform, top-down suburban planning. After he got the idea of using aerials images of the city as prints for a modern Persian carpet, he needed to find the best aerial views, and what better alternative than the free-to-use Google Earth? And since our eyes are used to a horizontal view, rather than seeing things from above, at first most people assume it’s just an abstract pattern, instead of a Las Vegas building block.

Persian rug paintings @ ABC Carpet #NYC: “The Color of Sacred,” Solo Exhibition - ArtfixDaily.com

Madeline Weinrib to Host “The Color of Sacred,” Solo Exhibition Showcasing the Work of Artist ... - Artwire Press Release from ArtfixDaily.com:
"Magnificent and mystical, Mark Wilson’s work re-interprets traditional seventeenth century Persian carpets, long treasured by both Eastern and Western cultures. These paintings share the same reverence and exquisite detailing as the handwoven originals. With paint and brush, Wilson mirrors the opulent natural palette of indigo, madder, pomegranate rind and walnut husk dyes, the beautifully mellow colors that are characteristic of antique Persian carpets. This particular series was begun as a creative response to the events of 9/11 when Wilson was living close to the World Trade Center. ” There’s something hypnotic about gazing into a carpet, that enables mystical thoughts to flow, “said Wilson."
