 Erzuli

Designed and Hooked by Yanick Duchesne 

In the words of the artist: " Erzuli, voodoo god of love, is often represented in wrought iron on the front of homes to protect them. The central motif of the pillow is inspired from a traditional Haitian drawing. 

I added some decorative folkloric curves and hearts."

Hooked Kilim Rugs

Several years ago I taught a workshop in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia on the rich color and techniques of Hooking Kilims. These are some examples of hooked Kilim rugs from that workshop.
