Hello, I am
Demeter
Fogarasi
Demeter is a Hungarian artist, based in Budapest, who is creating concept based furniture through experimentation. His design-engineer background pushes his creations far from his imagination into the technical aspects of the physical realm, while gently brushing all of his creations, with deep emotions and meanings. Emotion plays a very important aspect in his sculptural works, giving birth to furniture that is invoking poetry.
“Design has always been a part of me in some way, yet I have never felt it this close. I like to think of furniture as sort of jewels assigning life to spaces. Each one of them has their own story to tell, in a way they inhabit interiors, where their actual meaning is driven by the spectator. With my work I aim to invoke the curiosity of one’s inner child.“
