TEHRAN- The Carpet Museum of Iran in Tehran is currently hosting a unique artistic installation to commemorate the National Carpet Day. The event, organized in collaboration with the Contemporary Visual Arts Institute, aims to bring together people from all walks of life and artists from various disciplines to create a collaborative and interactive installation titled "Flying Carpet" today and tomorrow. The installation features valuable and historic rug images from the Carpet Museum of Iran's collection.

Additionally, the event includes an art workshop where participating artists, including graphic designers, will work together to create a unique and immersive experience. Persian carpets are renowned for their intricate designs and patterns, which are often reminiscent of the serene beauty of Persian gardens. Weavers dedicate months of meticulous labor to create these masterpieces, stringing and knotting thousands of threads on a loom.

While some adhere to traditional established patterns, others push the boundaries of creativity, crafting their own unique designs. Each Persian carpet is a testament to the craftsmanship and patience of the weavers, with a single piece taking up to a year to complete. This labor-intensive process has earned Iranian carpets a reputation as one of the most complex and intricate handicrafts in the world.

The final stages of the process involve cutting, washing, and drying the carpet in the sun, leaving it with a soft, luxurious texture. Througho.
