OBJECTS OF DESIRE I.
FOLDING SCREENS 2024

ERDEI'S COLLECTION MARKS THE GENESIS OF AN ARTISTIC JOURNEY, WHERE HE DELVES INTO HIGHLY DECORATIVE FURNITURE PIECES. THE HAND-PAINTED FOLDING SCREENS ARE A TESTAMENT TO HIS ARTISTIC VISION, FEATURING WHIMSICAL LINES AND SOFT WARM HUES INFLUENCED BY POMPEIIAN FRESCOES AND THE FRENCH SURREALIST MOVEMENT. THE DESIGNS SPAN TROMPE L’OEIL COLUMNS AND BOISERIE DETAILS, INTRICATELY CONSTRUCTED FROM INTERLINKING GEOMETRIC ELEMENTS, MYTHOLOGICAL FIGURES, AND CONSTELLATIONS EMBELLISHED WITH GOLD LEAF APPLIQUES.

ERDEI NOTES, "WE HAVE BEEN DECORATING OUR WALLS WITH VISUALLY IMPORTANT FRESCOES, PAINTINGS, ILLUSTRATIONS SINCE PREHISTORIC TIMES WHEN IT ALL STARTED WITH CAVE PAINTINGS. I FOUND IT INTERESTING HOW WE ARE STILL DOING THE SAME WITH OUR WALLS, AND I WANTED TO REFLECT ON THAT. THE SCREENS ARE IMPRESSIVELY TALL (2.30M), SERVING AS A HIGHLY DECORATIVE 'WALL' BETWEEN THE OWNER AND THE OUTSIDE WORLD. IT’S A FENCE THAT LOOKS PLAIN FROM ONE SIDE BUT IMMERSES YOU INTO AN ILLUSTRATED UNIVERSE ON THE OTHER SIDE.

EACH PIECE IS ENTIRELY COSTUMIZABLE. FOR BESPOKE DESIGNS AND COSTUM SIZES PLEASE CONTACT INFO@GERGEIERDEI.COM
