‘Doubts’ is the latest work created by Baku, Azerbaijan based artist Faig Ahmed.
Known for his surreal manipulations of decorative rugs. ‘Doubts’ is one of his largest works and is currently on display at Sapar Contemporary in New York. It’s a large rug that starts of normal but slowly appears to milt onto the floor. Here is what the artist had to say about this new work.
“We started the production of this work a month before the whole world plunged into doubts about the future due to the current situation caused by the pandemic. Because of the quarantine we had to close our textile studio several times and artwork on the loom was waiting for its time. A few days ago, after 7 months, “Doubts?” were cut off the loom. There are no more doubts in this carpet, destroying the geometric intelligible boundaries of the patterns – overflowing they geal on the floor – this is the limit of doubts” – Faig Ahmed
