Taste for shapes essentiality and chromatic refinement; these are characterising elements of Ritagli, the new collection designed by Elisa Ossino. Rugs that arise from the combination of hand-drawn shapes, cut out and subtracted from the carpet’s material, in which the contours outline has been marked with black color to replicate the pencil’s stroke, on a chromatically uniform or multicoloured fleece. Bamboo silk and New Zealand wool yarns have been chosen for this collection which, in a completely natural way, blends playful features and extraordinary refinement. “The starting inspiration comes from geometry, as often happens in my projects, but at the same time my research on abstraction continues, aimed at creating almost pictorial objects, which seek balance and formal perfection by expressing emotional states.” The new series, designed by Elisa Ossino, is inspired by a formal search for harmony and rhythm through essential shapes, determined by a combination of horizontal and vertical lines. Contemporary Collection devoids any traditional iconographic references, placing experience in the use of raw materials and in the different processing techniques at the service of the maximum creative freedom. This is also a collection that brings together the result of the creative dialogue between Amini Studio and external collaborators, belonging to different professional fields.
