Berber Polychrome pottery "Ideqqi" 14.02.2152
The geometric patterns that adorn the pottery - which can be found on textiles and women's tattoos - carry a symbolic meaning that dates back to the Neolithic period.
The purity of the forms, the simplicity and the spontaneity of the decorations give these objects a particular charm. They show a remarkable harmony between the function, the form and the decoration. Extract from the book published on the occasion of the eponymous exhibition "Ideqqi : Art of Berber Women" at the Musée Branly.
