Mouth is a wool kilim by Splot, designed by Piotr Niklas in an edition of 8 numbered pieces. It tells a tale of vibrant colors, urban hustle and bustle, exciting encounters and the plenitude of possibilities after a long summer sleep, a plunge into the mouth of the metropolis.
Kilim weaving has long been part of Polish tradition and aesthetics. Where kilim design in many regions remains rooted in conventional, repetitive patterns, Poland has treated the woven textile as a medium for modern design and artistic expression since the early 1900s.
Splot’s kilims are handcrafted in collaboration with two weaving centers with a distinctive heritage. Mouth is woven in Bobowa, near Kraków, where the weaving tradition dates back more than 70 years. Here the kilims are woven with a dense, refined texture on a linen warp. The wool is hand-spun, and its soft bouclé texture gives each kilim a subtle irregularity and depth that builds its organic character.
