Beyond the Loom

Team

Students: Farzane Omidi, Armin Piriyaei

Faculty Advisor: Kristi Gaines

Institution: Texas Tech University

Narrative

Behind the scene of art works is always attractive for people and makes them more familiar with the essence and the background of the artwork. Thus, while we were designing a place which integrates the work and life of an artist couple from Navajo, we decided to satisfy visitors scene of curiosity about the Navajo tribe’s customs and facts that are hidden beyond the loom by including some concepts and motifs of their life.

Integrating the life, work and social activities like the wefts and wraps of a rug offers more freedom and flexibility to artists. Thus, as the artist turns valueless things to a masterpiece, in BEYOND THE LOOM, we are turning 3 raw shipping containers to a great, occupiable space for life and work.
