Weaving Poems

Visit the captivating Weaving Poems exhibition, part of the Design Doha biennial, until 30th April 2024

Weaving Poems is an immersive exhibition of co-created carpets by Afghan designer Maryam Omar and the women weavers of the Bamiyan Valley. Maryam’s carpet designs celebrate the artisan communities of Bamiyan and the natural and cultural landscapes of the Bamiyan Valley. Each carpet is inspired by silhouettes, topographies and textures and is accompanied by details of the design and weaving process, images of the Bamiyan valley and a soundscape of the community poems associated with the weaving process.
