This textile art is by talented artist Kätlin Lõbu, who is based in Tartu, Estonia. Estonia is a small country, but Lõbu shows it has some big talent. The images in the gallery are from a workshop that Lõbu did. By photographing this textile art, she gave the rugs depth and seriousness not normally associated with flooring.
