Budget-friendly art pieces from Ikea for your home

Budget-friendly art pieces from Ikea for your home

Practical (and affordable) art pieces that are anything but boring

Contemporary art has often been associated with high-end price tags, but Ikea is set on blurring the lines between art and affordable, functional design with the Ikea Art Event collection.

For the sixth edition of the annual Ikea Art Event, the Swedish furniture brand launched a limited-edition 10-piece line-up designed in collaboration with five different artists and designers: American artist Daniel Arsham, Japanese design studio Gelchop, Sweden-based artist studio Humans since 1982, Dutch designer Sabine Marcelis and Berlin-based artist Stefan Marx,

Transforming art into everyday objects that’ll amp up your space, the collection sees minimalist lighting pieces, a wall clock, a table lamp, a torch, a vase, and wall decorations. They are slated to be available globally at Ikea stores and online from April 2021 (in-store purchases are limited to two pieces per product), and here’s what you’ll want to snag.

Budget-friendly art pieces from Ikea for your home
Vase by Stefan Marx, $32.90
image

Inspired by everyday life, artist Stefan Marx creates typographical artworks. These draw on conversations he overhears among friends and strangers, as well as lyrics and sentences from his favourite songs and books.

On this vase is the familiar wail of “I’m so so so sorrryyyy”.

Throw by Stefan Marx, $39.90

The phrase “I wait here for your forever as long as it takes” is emblazoned across this throw, originally scribbled in Marx’s notebook after seeing the message graffitied onto a wall in London.

Ikea
Clock by Daniel Arsham, $55
image

Designed by Daniel Arsham, the design of the timepiece is the expression of the idea of time flying by, together with his interest in architecture in movement.

Allen key-shaped torch by Gelchop, $39.90

Japanese art studio Gelchop shines the light on Ikea’s iconic Allen key, a tiny yet functional object, turning it into a quirky oversized table lamp and torch, available in silver and blue.

Drone motif wall decor by Humans Since 1982, $79
image

The creative duo of Humans Since 1982 often take iconic objects and recognisable signs and symbols out of their usual habitats and place them into new environments. Case in point: The drone, which is a present-day technological item, now rendered static as though it is a timeless artefact or specimen.

LED Wall lamps by Sabine Marcelis, $49.90 to $60
image

Armed with a minimalist aesthetic, New Zealand-born and Rotterdam-based designer Sabine Marcelis was inspired by Italian painter Lucio Fontana’s slashed canvases. She sought to reimagine this simple gesture – a cut through a surface – through a light fitting, with the final designs emerging through experimentation with folding and cutting paper.

They come in two different sizes, each with five different colour choices available.
