The Kilim – A Picture Writing
It seams, both today and tomorrow, people look at thi picturesque and still considerably rear folk art, even as it merits: enthusiastically and poetically. At the same time, the mysteriousness ot the ornaments and the world they belong to, gives the possibility to the contemporary man to discover them independently and iterpret them acording to the laws of its own imagination and will.
A woman has been siiting at the loom and weaving, weavin the patterns and running yarns with fingers patiently through, soaking them with dreams, dying them with hopes; the thread itself is the suffering too, a dream, a hope. The kilim not only absorbs the life of a person who makes it, but also discovers it. That’s just what in it art is. And the sense of a pattern is to show the life that is hidden. The kilim is a writing, a picture writing, a myth and a diary, a song and history.
