Dahlia is a series
of round rugs. With a background in traditional floor ornaments,
Claydies has used geometry and reflections to interpret rugs in a new
way. Using the motive of the Dahlia flower, hence the name of the rug,
Dahlia is both decorative and adds colour and dynamism to decor.
Claydies
has found particular inspiration in genuine rugs, where the decoration
often contains repetition, reflection and floral motives. Armed only
with a mirror, a compass and coloured pencils Claydies has toyed with
traditional geometric forms and created a pattern that is modern in
form, colour and expression.
Claydies explains
We are
used to working three-dimensionally in stoneware. However, arug has a
two-dimensional form that places other demands on us on creating depth
in the design. We have therefore worked with a round shape that creates
good dynamics in the rug´s motif. We got hold of Karens old compass and a
bunch of coloured pencils and played around with simple geometric forms
and reflections. In this way the motif of the Dahlia was created and we
believe that the rug has now achieved both a classic royal and a modern
funky appearance.
