In December, home-goods designer Aelfie Oudghiri ended the lease on her Brooklyn showroom, closed her brick-and-mortar shop, and moved her inventory to her family’s property in Sagaponack. Then, on the last day of June, she said, “I am on sabbatical from my company.” This move gives her time to work on her first feature film, 20 years in the making. The subject is her maternal grandmother, Lounah Starr, an artist and Holocaust survivor who is 104 years old. “She is kind of an outsider, folk artist,” she says. “A Holocaust survivor, a visionary; she’s very mystical.” And now Oudghiri has set up the barn, which Richard Prince and others have used as an art studio, as an artist’s residence.
