Kilim is a 2013 by Richard Roberts, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This print shows a weathered storefront with a peeling sign that reads "Kilim" in bold red letters. The window has a diamond-patterned metal grid, and the door next to it looks old and slightly ajar. The building’s walls are faded, with patches of rust and chipped paint, giving it a worn, urban feel. The word "Kilim" hints at a type of woven rug, but here it’s used as a store name. The mix of textures—rust, fabric, and metal—makes the scene feel real and gritty. Check out Richard Roberts to see more of his work.
