STUDIOART PEZZARA RUGS
Pezzara is the rediscovery of a millenary craft tradition, which flourished within the agro-pastoral communities in Puglia, Calabria and Sicily. Women piled up the waste fibers from various fabrics or shorn wool, or macerated linen or broom fibers to make heavy hanks of filaments. Colours depended either on the natural hues of the fleece or on dyes. These were made by drying or infusing insects,walnut shells, laurel leaves and pomegranate skins. In the end, the looms gave life to artisan blankets and rugs, dyed and patterned with embroidery and colours from the traditional Mediterranean culture. Pezzara, pure authentic art, is the spontaneous result of the capacity to create fabrics and artistic products of great appeal from disorder and inert waste materials. Recuperating the teachings of this southern Italian craft tradition, Studioart today renews the art of rag-rug making using an original material – leather. The result of this artistic intuition speaks for itself. Each weft thread is made up of leather laces and woven into the cotton warp threads with handicraft techniques. The end results are meticulously made rugs that preserve the appeal of the ancient art of rag-rug making, adding the emotion that a material like leather arouses.

COMPOSIZIONE 57 10
Pezzara derives from an age-old Mediterranean craft tradition. Aniline-dyed leather laces are woven into cotton warp threads using handicraft techniques. In the pearly version, leather laces are treated with metal powders, waxes and oils which endow them with distinctive luminescent or pearly effects. The result is a dramatically attractive and tactile collection in which exquisitely hand-woven warp and weft threads embrace light, embodying the very essence of elegance and refinement.
