"Night in the Desert," another wool tapestry in 5
parts by the artist, is shown below. These panels were hung so that they could be drawn
apart to shade the windows. Hand-crafted in Tunisia, the wall-hanging depicts the
life of the desert which has been a defining element of Arab culture. Click here for
a closer look at these panels drawn together.
