Carpets And Rugs As An Artistic Activity

From the first people to the present, humanity has been working to meet the needs. As the requirements arising from the needs are met, the next need is addressed. Therefore, since the first person, the basic artistic activities have come to the present day. Of course not every art activity is reached. One of the most important artistic activities that have reached today's history and are popular is carpeting and rugs.


In a sense, art is the ability of human imagination, emotions, cultural backgrounds, thoughts and talents to transfer to activities such as carpets and rugs. While all these phenomena are conveyed to the performance, an inner emotion and narrative technique is used. As a general definition, a kind of communication model is reflected silently on the product.


Fine arts and applied arts are considered as a branch of art. Visual arts, audiovisual arts and audiovisual arts also have a place in fine arts. They are divided into two classes as handicrafts and industrial arts in applied arts. Traditional rugs and carpet art are the best examples of handicrafts. Artistic activity is, in a sense, an important phenomenon required for the basic activities of man.


In societies, carpet and rug weaving is one of the art spaces that best reflects artistic sensibility. Houses, workplaces and social spaces with living spaces are further enhanced with architectural motifs.

Rugs and carpets remained the same in the transition from nomadic life to settled life. A complex technique at the same age as the rug in the carpet, is a product that requires more labor, has a higher social status, but is mainly used for the same purposes and for the same aims. The reason for its development with a different form of dictionary and order is the use in higher layers of society.


The carpet, which was supposed to be produced in order to meet the needs of people in the early days, later adorned palaces, castles and temples as a valuable work of art and was frequently used in paintings of painters.

The art of weaving is one of the works that man has achieved since the earliest ages. When we look at the history of weaving art, we can see that the pioneers have a loop technique with network technique. The examples starting with the fishing net that the primitive man weaves with the animal bones have surrounded the earth.
