Clouded Horizons — Beni Mrirt Color-Field Wash
Clouded Horizons — Beni Mrirt Color-Field Wash (200 × 300 cm)
A contemporary Beni Mrirt on an airy ivory ground, animated by painterly color bands—copper, rust, teal, sage, and ochre— that drift across the field like cloud banks. Dense, velvety pile; short flatweave aprons with natural fringe. A modern statement that stays soft, warm, and eminently livable.
Glyph Reading
The color-field registers recall Amazigh landscape memory—terraces, river cuts, and horizon lines. Their soft edges act as a gentled axis recall, guiding movement laterally while the open ground holds calm. Energetically, this piece brings expansive flow and quiet optimism to large living zones.
