Dutch artist Ge-Karel van der Sterrens 'Table Dance' contemporary carpet art exhibit uses carpeting as its medium.
Modern art rarely sees carpeting as the main event, but der Sterren's contemporary carpet art exhibit defies that tradition. The artist created a canvas of a dining table including plates, cutlery and food, which was then woven onto carpet by international carpet company DESSO. The walls of Ge-Karel van der Sterrens 'Table Dance' show diners relaxed at the table, looking at their meals. How contemporary!
