Omar Rayo (1928–2010) was one of Latin America's defining geometric abstractionists, a Colombian painter, printmaker, and sculptor whose hard-edged compositions of bands, diamonds, and circles placed him among the pioneers of Op Art. His mature work staged a conversation between pre-Columbian visual culture and geometric abstraction, and in 1981 he founded the Museo Rayo in his hometown of Roldanillo to preserve that legacy. 

This collaboration brings Rayo's visual language, order, repetition, symmetry, into Sabandija's full-grain leather craftsmanship, reimagined as a portable backgammon set.

Here, geometry becomes territory. The board proposes a space of order and strategy, where repetition and symmetry are activated through time, play, and interaction.

Portable backgammon set crafted from full-grain leather, designed to stylishly accompany moments of leisure while traveling. Its roll-up format allows for easy storage and transport without compromising quality or detail.

To care for smooth leather products, simply moisturize them regularly (once a month) using a leather conditioner or specialized leather cream

About the Artist

Omar Rayo, a Colombian artist of extraordinary versatility, has left an enduring imprint on the world. His most iconic works serve as a bridge between pre-Columbian visual culture and geometric abstraction, featuring crisp patterns and folds that challenge flatness. Born in Colombia, Rayo's early career as a caricaturist evolved into surrealistic watercolors during his "bejuquismo" period. His extensive travels throughout South America inspired the "Via Sur" series, where indigenous influences and exposure to literary giants like Jorge Luis Borges shaped his distinctive geometric stylizations. Omar Rayo's enthusiasm for trompe l’oeil is rooted in a profound sense of playfulness and mischief....
