Edgar Orlaineta

Mexican, b. 1972

Edgar Orlaineta is one of Mexico’s most conceptually refined sculptors of his generation. His practice bridges the history of modern design and the critical discourse of contemporary art, questioning the utopian ideals embedded in mid-century modernism. By hybridizing architecture, furniture, and sculpture, Orlaineta reconstructs the modernist canon through a Latin American lens, transforming industrial icons into poetic, hand-crafted objects that reflect on authorship, material culture, and collective memory.

Orlaineta’s work represents a crucial dialogue between design history and the post-colonial re-interpretation of modernism — positioning him among the most influential voices in the Mexican contemporary art scene.

Tibetan Rug Hand Knotted Silk Wool Meditation Mat Kampa Dzong Djoharian Design
By djoharian-design
Located in Lohr, Bavaria, DE
A stunning Tibetan rug in checkerboard design. This traditional checkerboard rug design is typically found on antique rugs called Khaden. It describes a small sized rug of about 3 x 6 ft that was used in Tibet to decorate columns or seat pad. Often these Khaden rugs had Lotus design, Dragons or Tiger stripes. Many of them were made in a town called Kampa Dzong in Tibet. Our collection of Tibetan rugs offers new, vintage and antique Tibetan rugs. The displayed rug is made of 50% Tibetan hand spun wool and 50% fine Chinese mulberry silk. Total pile height about 1/2-inch, Knot density 60 Tibetan knots per square inch. This rug has a fantastic feel, very soft and smooth. We can reproduce this design in sizes up to 45 x 16 ft on order. Other color combinations are possible. Goes great with Art Deco or Hollywood Regency interior design, but will be an eye catcher in any room, no matter if it is a living room, dining room or bedroom. Interior designers welcome. Very fine wool and silk quality. Current production of the Djoharian Design...
