Handmade by Atelier Autodidacts Anti Algorithm (AAAA). This is a cooperation of Artisans from Mali. The Bogolan is an original Malian Textile art.
The AAAA Bogolan is made with love and every piece is unique. The imperfections you may find in the weaving, print designs or embroidery make the product perfect.

The Bogolan (made of mud) is a traditional handmade Malian cotton fabric (finimugu) dyed and painted with herbs and fermented mud. The AAAA Bogolan is created in harmony with nature. Locally grown herbs are used to dye and mud from the Niger River to paint the patterns.
Every Textile Totem pattern has been named by AAAA . Their ancestors taught them to make patterns holding a variety of protective and beneficial properties. They learned from their ancestors and like to pass it on but with a contemporary twist.
Be careful with direct sunlight. Treat this beautiful wallhanging like you would treat any other artwork.
