Hand Knotted Confluence of Rivers Carpet
This hand-knotted carpet from the Amorphous collection depicts "The Confluence of Rivers"(Encontro das Águas) known to be the merging of dark (blackwater) Rio Negro and the pale sandy-colored, white water Amazon River. This phenomenon is due to the differences in temperature, speed and amount of dissolved sediments in the waters of the two rivers.
