As in past work, we used color and composition to seek a balance between nostalgic and modern perspectives. The Desert Collection rugs continue this exploration, but, in a nod to Khemir’s films, employ looming dreamlike imagery to acknowledge the tension inherent in integrating past and present.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eAs with several past collections, we chose to build dioramas for each rug style to connect the rugs with the world around them. We structured abstract landscapes for the Passenger dioramas, and domestic still lifes for the Interior:1974, dioramas. This time, we decided to merge our love of film, interior design, architecture, and sculpture by creating detailed miniature rooms to house each rug design. Many of the rooms, like the rugs that inhabit them, were inspired by Khemir’s films; others by vintage interior books from our own home library, and a few were simply rooms we would like to live in.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePhotography: Jonathan Hökklo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"wanderersofthedesert-2","title":"Wanderers of the Desert","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-sheets-userformat='{\"2\":899,\"3\":{\"1\":0},\"4\":{\"1\":2,\"2\":16777215},\"10\":0,\"11\":4,\"12\":0}' data-sheets-value='{\"1\":2,\"2\":\"Named after the first film in Nacer Khemir’s Desert Trilogy, Wanderers of the Desert (the movie) is about a schoolteacher who moves to a village in the middle of the desert to teach, but he spends all his time staring out the window.
