Boucherouite— Berber rag rugs, 20-25 years old

Made by Berber women from the Boujad region of Morocco (the High Atlas mountain region) using rags, discarded clothing, stockings, wool remnants and miscellaneous fabric scraps.  They show an adaptive rug making process with their use of available materials but the vital color pairings and subtle compositions underline how inventive the makers are within a traditional framework.
