SURYA TO DEBUT RUG LINE BY NORTH CAROLINA
LANDSCAPE
ARTIST WILLIAM MANGUM
Surya's Artisan ARI 1004
|
CALHOUN, GA - Surya will launch at April's High Point Market three rug
collections from William Mangum, a nationally- and
internationally-acclaimed artist who - for more than 35 years - has
captured in his paintings the essence of the American landscape.
From
the aura and textures of the Blue Ridge Mountains to windswept
shorelines, Mangum's rug designs artfully infuse elements of the natural
world into living spaces to create inspired tapestries.
The collections, which take their cues from the diverse regions in Mangum's native North Carolina, include:

Artisan - Over-scaled fern and pine motifs are brought to life in this
outdoor safe collection of hand-hooked rugs featuring tonal hues in a
natural palette.
Essential - Hand-woven jute and colors of earth blend harmoniously in
this textural collection, echoing the rugged beauty of the ever-changing
landscape.
Remarque - Impressions of sand and water kissed by dappled sunlight
evoke a sense of gentle movement in this collection of hand-tufted wool
rugs with viscose accents.

"My
goal as an artist is help people to become astute observers of the world
around them, to encourage them to pause and appreciate nature's inherent
ability to shape our mood and comfort levels," said William Mangum,
artist. "With these new rug collections for Surya, I wanted to provide
an accessible way for people to bring the beauty of the outdoors into
their home environments while also complementing the latest home decor
and fashion trends. The Surya team has been a great partner in
translating my artistic vision into timeless, handcrafted rugs that
provide the perfect canvas upon which individuals can express their
unique style."
"As a
lifelong student of nature, Bill Mangum possesses the rare ability to
see beyond the surface of the landscape to capture its intrinsic beauty
in a way that really speaks to the viewer," said Satya Tiwari,
president, Surya. "Likewise, at Surya, we are always looking beyond what
has been done before to find new and different ways to bring inspired
design into the home. Working with Bill is a natural fit as we continue
to expand our product portfolio to reflect diverse styles and themes,
and we are excited to share these new collections with our customers."
Market
attendees are invited to explore William Mangum's rug collections at
Surya's flagship showroom - Showplace 4100 - which will be open daily
from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Surya
is also hosting several educational and social events and will serve a
complimentary catered breakfast and lunch each day, along with hors
d'oeuvres and cocktails each evening.
