[ ⁧30 آب, 2025 ٠٩:٠٦ م ] زوجة العمر: Professor Dr. Safa Lutfi has published her book, Visual Structures of Arab Textile Arts: Systematic Patterns and Symbolic Worlds, published by Safa Publishing and Distribution in Jordan.

The book is a journey into the world of Arab textile arts, where threads transform into vibrant paintings, and colors and motifs intertwine in a profound symbolic language that reflects identity and collective memory.

The book highlights the aesthetics of Arab carpets, with their rich visual forms and motifs. These rich motifs transcend mere traditional craftsmanship to become an artistic and cultural record that tells the stories of place and people.

The book reveals the role of Arabs in general, and Mesopotamians in particular, in crafting these works, and the world of symbols woven by hand to become more than just art, but rather a visual identity and a memory passed down through the ages. It also established a visual art that predated modern visual art by thousands of years.

For those interested in arts, heritage, and visual symbols
And for researchers in Arab carpets and the aesthetic and cultural connotations they carry.

The book is large-format and contains more than 200 pages.
