Moroccan Rug Weaving Process
Women in rural Moroccan villages, often confined to domestic tasks such as cooking, washing, sewing, and childcare, as well as agricultural responsibilities, managed to express their autonomy and bold artistic spirit through textile work and carpet weaving. Despite societal limitations, these women demonstrated creativity by improvising structures, patterns, and motifs from a diverse repertoire, resulting in breathtakingly stunning pieces that can be described as pure poetry - abstract yet laden with profound meaning.
The weaving process involves one or two women seated side by side on a bench at a vertical loom, ensuring their hands remain at the same level. As the finished part of the carpet is gradually rolled around the lower beam, the weaver loses sight of the overall work, seeing only the last portion. This method requires the weaver to rely on forms from memory, providing ample scope for creativity. Rooted in tradition, these artisans continually incorporate their intuitions, feelings, and imagination into their work, allowing for artistic freedom. This dynamic process results in the surprising spontaneity and incomparable variety that characterize Berber carpets.
The indispensable tools for this craft include a loom, combs, carders, baskets, spindles, among others.
