{"title":"Textile Art","description":"\u003cp\u003eWorks that use weaving, embroidery, knotting, and fabric as primary material rather than ornament. Drawing on the deep tradition of Middle Eastern textile craft — from Persian carpet weaving to Palestinian \u003cem\u003etatreez\u003c\/em\u003e embroidery to the geometric tapestries of North Africa — contemporary Arab artists have increasingly reframed these techniques as fine art. The form's connection to women's labor, anonymous makers, and inherited tradition gives it particular political weight in contemporary practice. Though smaller in number than the painted works in the Artsamy collection, textile pieces represent some of the most distinctive and culturally specific work the region produces.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/artsamy.com\/collections\/textile-art.oembed","provider":"Artsamy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
