The
distinction between "Art" and "Craft"
has long been a source of discourse and contention within
artistic circles, where one is tacitly considered superior
to the other. This need to judge and qualify in itself
is questionable; one can safely assume that the basis
for the separation lies in the definition of each discipline's
inherent purpose. Craft implies manual skill and humble
utility, while Art suggests cerebral and sublime creativity.
Still, despite this lingering prejudice, there have
been and will always exist those individuals who transcend
categorization, merging the worlds of art and craft
to produce design legacies of lasting impact. It is
in this spirit of excellence and non-conformity that
ASHA Carpets aspires to create its original floor coverings;
unique works of art that acknowledge both the styles
and patterns of varying world cultures, as well as those
born of the personal contemporary vision of our artists.
Using the finest handspun wool, dyed to exacting standards,
ASHA Carpets are hand woven in China and Nepal by skilled
artisans, resulting in a product that represents the
perfect synthesis of functionality and sumptuous beauty. |
