Kera c. 20th century

This long, narrow textile work, Kera, whose creator is anonymous, draws you in with its detailed weaving and warm, earthy tones. I can imagine the artist working meticulously, interweaving threads of ochre, sienna, and olive to create these complex geometric motifs. It must have been a deeply meditative process. Each shape, each line feels intentionally placed, creating a sense of rhythm and harmony. The patterns remind me of the work of Anni Albers, who also explored the intersection of weaving and abstract art. There's a sense of both tradition and innovation here, a conversation between past and present. What I love most is the way the texture and color interact; the slight variations in the yarn create a tactile experience that invites you to reach out and touch it. This piece embodies a form of embodied expression in which no line is perfectly straight.
