Description
This stamp highlights the work of Safia Farhat, a leading figure of artistic modernity in Tunisia and a pioneer of wall tapestry. The detail of the illustrated work testifies to its ability to merge ancestral weaving techniques with an abstract and contemporary plastic language. By devoting this issue to tapestry, the Tunisian Post honors the heritage of the School of Tunis and celebrates the contribution of women artists to the redefinition of Tunisian artistic crafts as an academic and avant-garde discipline.
