Pedro Friedeberg

Sacred Symbols, Woven Surrealism

TeHer Art Rugs is honored to present a singular collaboration with legendary Mexican surrealist Pedro Friedeberg, whose fantastical world of symbols, architecture, and wit has captivated collectors and institutions for over six decades. Best known for his iconic Hand-Foot Chair and richly detailed drawings, Friedeberg brings his universe of visual riddles into textile form for the very first time.
This one-of-a-kind rug transforms one of Friedeberg’s emblematic compositions—at once playful, mystical, and mathematically precise—into a hand-knotted artwork that blurs the line between functional object and visual statement. Dense with symbolic references, geometric repetition, and esoteric humor, the piece invites both contemplation and delight.
Handcrafted in Nepal by master artisans, the rug brings Friedeberg’s intricate drawing to life using traditional techniques passed down through generations. Every line and motif is translated with precision and reverence, turning thread into language and texture into narrative.
This rug is more than a decorative piece—it is a surrealist tapestry, a conversation between artistic imagination and material mastery. It embodies TeHer’s mission: to collaborate with the world’s most visionary artists in creating textile works that are both timeless in craft and boundless in meaning
