About Artist:

賴詩鑒 Lai Shi-Jyan, born in 1993 in Fujian, China, currently resides in Shanghai, and graduated from the Oil Painting Department of Minzu University of China. In 2016, he operated VACUUM GALLERYY in Beijing, supporting emerging artists' exhibition practices through this art space. During this period, he also engaged in artistic creation and participated in exhibitions organized by other institutions. Currently, he works at an advertising company.

His motivation for painting stems from contemplation on his own life: Who am I the son of? What flows through my veins? Where is my desire leading me? These questions became particularly significant after he started working in a foreign land, intertwining longing and fantasy for his homeland and ancestry, which characterized his creative period from 2017 to 2023 with bitterness and beauty. This led to contemplations on life and death, love and affection, poverty and wealth, betrayal and honor.

About Rug:

100% Finest Wool

Hand knotted especially for you in the ways of the Beni M’rirt tribes who have made their small town of M’rirt in Khénifra Province famous around the world. These distinguished craftsmen and women together create the absolute highest quality of rugs on the African continent.

M’rirt has to be felt to believe it, so smooth, so soft, by far the fluffiest of all Moroccan rugs. In fact all of the finest wool in Morocco is reserved for making M’rirt rugs. Your made to order rug will be created knot by knot with an especially long and meticulous process passed down through the generations.

Beni M’rirt rugs are the definite choice for the experienced interior designer. Created with a special devotion to quality and contemporary aesthetics. Beni M’rirt rugs might look similar to Beni Ourain at first glance, but they are made with a different knot and thinner yarn making them both softer and more robust. While most other tribal rugs have a focus on telling a story or adhere to tradition, Beni M’rirt always has more of a modern feeling like it was meant to be part of an interior space, like it was meant to serve its life on the floor of a beautiful house for centuries to come.

We work closely with our artisans to make these rugs special. As you will see, they are truly pieces of art that elevate any interior, complementing both modern and bohemian design language. No matter which pattern you choose, know that your rug will give your home an incredibly cozy feeling for many years to come.

Äventyr believes in a more sustainable world made from natural materials. It is with this mindset we source products that last a lifetime and can easily be absorbed by nature once they have fulfilled their purpose. Handmade is not only more beautiful, it is also better for the environment.
