His original spin-art paintings were done with One-Step sign painter’s enamel -- a brilliantly hued, high-gloss set of colors using a jerry-rigged machine assembled from a Canal Street electric motor and pulley set horizontally in a bin made of wood lathe and plastic sheeting.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe has exhibited his art at the New Museum and the Drawing Center in New York, among numerous other galleries, art fairs, and institutions.

Each artist is intimately involved in the translation from artwork to rug. Made of wool and silk, the rugs are hand-knotted by highly-skilled artisans in Nepal using the traditional cross-weaving technique. Many carpets today are made with uncrossed weaving which is cheaper, faster to produce, and less durable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mill’s carbon footprint is extremely low. It does not employ any heavy machinery and uses electricity generated via hydro (not coal, not diesel, not nuclear), as well as solar panels and windmills.

This insures that no child labor was used in the production of our rugs. GoodWeave conducts unannounced random inspections of the factory and makes sure all adult weavers are paid fair wages. Their overall mission is to end child labor in the carpet industry and to offer educational opportunities to children in South Asia.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BravinLee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67761648894178,"sku":"ROBW01","price":8000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1979\/0029\/files\/WalterRobinson01levelsandcurvesauto.jpg?v=1792516764","url":"https:\/\/artwareeditions.com\/ja-jp\/products\/tumultuous-heart-rug-by-walter-robinson","provider":"Artware Editions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
