The Public Curates: My Favourite Object with Jen Maus

Toronto teacher and artist Jen Maus waxes poetic about her favourite object in the Aga Khan Museum's Collection. At first, Your Way Begins on the Other Side, by Pakistani artist Aisha Khalid, resembles an impressive, if traditional, Islamic garden carpet, rendered in blue, gold, and red. But, as Maus describes, look closer and you'll find a "highly conceptual artwork, full of beautiful contradictions and juxtapositions."
