Description

The Room from The Smog Rug Collection by A* alittlemore studio is a square area rug designed to look like slivers of the smog infused sky woven together. The Room is a representation of smog as an interloper in the sky, its stark hues diffusing against the natural gradients of our sunsets. It depicts a narrative bearing witness to the devastating effects of crop burning on the sky – how smoke creeps up on natural hues and assimilates into its landscape, creating an unsettling yet captivating moment. The rug serves as a powerful conclusion to the series, highlighting the smog’s explicit intrusion into the sky. It disrupts the delicate balance of nature and the very fabric of our skies by lingering over it for months on end. The vivid abstraction of the skyscape on the rug is a stark reminder of the consequences of crop burning, bringing the discussion for climate change and the urgent need for intervention to the forefront.

About the collection: A foray into visual storytelling depicting vivid abstractions of the Punjabi Landscape – the collection consists of a series of three hand-knotted rugs made of 100% hand-spun wool. The wool is hand-dyed and the rugs are trimmed meticulously by skilled artisans. What began as a single rug – The Calendar – soon expanded into a series of three limited edition pieces.This collection of rugs is an homage to the land showcasing climate change due to the catastrophic interventions perpetuated by humans. The labor intensive process of carpet making mirrors the hardships endured by farmers desperate to ready the land in time for the next sowing season – in their fervor burning expansive swathes of land that pollutes the land and sky for weeks on end, slowly sapping the once bountiful Punjabi soil of its nutrients.

The collection includes The Calendar, The Runner and The Room.

The Room Rug can be customized in colors and size.
