Clay Scan
designed by Eny Lee Parker
about the collection
Clay Scan delves into the tactile essence of clay and its translation into the visual language of design. Drawing inspiration from her hands-on sculpting process, Eny Lee Parker reimagined the medium by transforming its three-dimensional forms into striking two-dimensional compositions.
Using techniques such as rolling, pressing, and shaping, Eny Lee captured the raw textures, undulating edges, and organic imperfections of clay through a scanner. These impressions preserve the inherent beauty of handwork, serving as the foundation for her designs.
“This process allowed me to bridge the physicality of sculpting with the artistry of textile design,”

At the cc-tapis Atelier in Nepal, expert artisans meticulously translated these scans onto rugs, creating three unique designs in Himalayan wool.
The collection’s color palette draws directly from the natural hues of clay: deep, earthy browns reminiscent of drying terracotta, paired with soft, creamy whites that echo the tones of Eny Lee Parker’s most-used clay. These hues celebrate the raw, unfiltered beauty of the material in its purest form.
