Where ancient mythology meets modernist rigor in a vertical labyrinth of light and shadow.

Asterion at the Bauhaus: Study 1 is a singular, one-of-a-kind rarity by the artist duo Furst_Ori. This conceptual work asks the playful question: What would the mythic Minotaur—Asterion—have created as a student of the Bauhaus?

The result is a "vertical labyrinth"—a sophisticated mixed-media sculpture that reimagines the idea of confinement as a study of geometric clarity. It is a striking contemplative centerpiece where the weight of Greek myth meets the sleek, industrial soul of early 20th-century design.

[Acquire This Singular 1-of-1 Original]


The Interaction: A Labyrinth of Depth

Designed to evolve under the gaze of the viewer, this sculpture transforms the wall into a space of architectural mystery:

  • Layered Narratives: The work features layered acrylic panels that create a physical sense of depth, mimicking the corridors of a labyrinth.

  • Shifting Reflections: The combination of polished stainless steel and hand-painted acrylic allows the piece to catch and refract ambient light, revealing hidden "passages" and textures as you move around it.

  • Modernist Shadows: The welded framework projects a crisp, structural silhouette, turning the concept of a "tower" into a three-dimensional shadow-play on your wall.


Why This Piece is Unique

  • A Singular "Study": As "Study 1," this is a unique 1-of-1 original. It represents a specific, unrepeatable moment in Furst_Ori’s conceptual exploration of myth and modernism.

  • Mixed-Media Mastery: This piece unites traditional Indian Ink and Airbrush techniques with industrial Stainless Steel, bridging the gap between classical draftsmanship and modern engineering.

  • Intellectual Focal Point: A dream for collectors who appreciate art with a "backstory," this sculpture serves as a definitive conversation piece about history, architecture, and the human condition.


The Craftsmanship

  • Hand-Painted Precision: Each panel is individually treated with airbrush and Indian ink, creating a textured, atmospheric depth that can only be achieved by the artist's hand.

  • Industrial Framework: The "labyrinth" is housed in a high-precision welded frame of steel and stainless steel, hand-polished to a gallery-standard finish.

  • Architectural Sketching: Consistent with the Furst_Ori aesthetic, the steel bars act as "ink lines in space," creating a three-dimensional blueprint of Asterion’s mythical home.

Product Safety & Compliance Information

Legal Notice & Artistic Nature

This is an original, handmade work of art, produced in a
limited series and intended for collectors and decorative display purposes
only. In the interest of full transparency and the safety of our collectors, we
provide the following information regarding the correct handling and
preservation of the artwork.

Intended Use & Environment

  • Indoor
    use only. This sculpture is designed exclusively for indoor decorative
    display. Exposure to outdoor conditions — including rain, moisture, frost,
    or high humidity — will cause corrosion of the metal components and
    degradation of the acrylic elements.
  • Not
    a toy. This is a professional artwork and is not intended for children.
    Please keep it out of reach of children and pets at all times.

Material Hazards & Handling

  • Metal
    components may include intentional sharp edges, points, or delicate
    structural details inherent to the artistic design. Handle with care
    during unboxing and placement to avoid injury or damage to the piece.
  • Acrylic
    elements should not be subjected to excessive pressure or impact, as they
    may crack or detach from the metal frame.
  • Stability:
    Place the sculpture on a flat, stable, and sturdy surface capable of
    supporting its weight. Avoid high-traffic areas where it could be
    accidentally knocked over.

Maintenance & Care

  • Cleaning:
    Use only a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Never use alcohol, chemical
    solvents, or abrasive products — these will permanently cloud, scratch, or
    crack the acrylic surface.
  • Heat
    & light: Keep away from open flames, candles, and direct high-heat
    sources. Prolonged exposure to intense heat or direct sunlight may warp or
    discolour the acrylic components.
