African Geometric Motifs Merino Wool Scarf
An art scarf inspired by The Met collection.
This bold geometric scarf emulates the cross-shaped forms, zigzag lines, and diamond patterns of a 20th-century bogolanfini (or mud-cloth) wrapper in The Met's Michael C. Rockefeller Wing. Produced in Mali using the traditional mud-dyeing technique of the Bamana people, bogolanfini textiles often feature motifs that are abstract or semi-abstract representations of everyday objects. When combined, they can express a proverb, song, or story, forming a visual language passed down from one generation to the next.
