AL SADU WEAVING

AL SADU IS AN ANCIENT SKILL PRACTICED BY BEDUOIN WOMEN WHICH IS ENDANGERED AND CLOSE TO DISAPPEARING FOREVER.  THIS TRIBAL ART IS NOT RECORDED AND IT IS PASSED DOWN FROM MOTHER TO DAUGHTER VERBALLY AND BY EXAMPLE.  IT IS PROTECTED AND INCLUDED IN THE INTANGIBLE CULTURAL HERITAGE OF HUMANITY BY THE UNESCO.

IT ONLY USES NATURAL DYES  (DIWANIYA).  THE SYMBOLS, PATTERNS AND MOTIFS ARE INSPIRED BY WHAT BEDOUIN WOMEN SEE...EVERY SHAPE AND MOTIF HAS A MEANING AND IT IS A VERY PERSONAL INTERPRETATION, FOR EX., WAVES IN THE SAND, SHAPES OF THEIR HUTS, CAMELS, GOATS, ETC.
