The Story of the Object

This book was published as part of "The Warp of Time" project that explores memory, heritage, and artistic expression in light of a century of shared history at the Old Carpet Factory, a historic 18th century mansion on the Island of Hydra in Greece, transformed into a carpet-weaving factory by the Soutzoglou family in the early twentieth century. Today the estate belongs to music producer and collector Stephan Colloredo - Mansfeld, who turned the property into a unique recording studio that became a creative refuge for artists seeking the simplicity and beauty of the past. Other objects in the MNHMH 01 series include an antique carpet woven on-site and two carpets by Marden that translate her intuitive watercolors inspired by her memories of Hydra.
