Joali Maldives

Ardmore, the South African art collective integrated the Maldivian national Grey Heron bird into the sculptures and pattern specially designed for Joali. This special design is inspired by the romance of fragrant Frangipangi flowers and the humid mangroves coupled with the flight and elegance of sea birds. Guests can easily spot the art pieces in the airport lounge and arrival jetty and the pattern in special pieces such as the in-room kimonos.

Maldives Vibes by Zemer Peled, Israel

Paying homage to the rich underwater world of the Maldives, sculptor and installation artist Zemer Peled created the Maldives Vibes aiming to show the beauty of the underwater world in an unexpected way. The intricate, delicate coral forms and the beautiful colours of the multitudinous organisms are manifested through the undulating shape of the sculpture and its rich colour palette.

Maldives Vibes is primarily white in colour, which symbolises the coral bleaching that has affected the Maldives, with striking colours that embellish the sculpture, that serve as both a memory of the vibrant coral reef and encouragement for its future protection.

Coiled by Doug Johnston, South Canada

New York based artist, Doug Johnston produces functional and sculptural objects made out of coiling and machine-stitching. Doug’s new art piece at Joali named Coiled draws guests into an immersive experience in which they can relax and feel the waves and textures of the island. His collection of works combining design, architecture, spatial and landscape formation, art and craft can also be found in the Design Shop at Joali.

Joali extends its immersive art experience throughout the guests’ entire stay in different ways such as the in-room art decoration, artist workshop and experiential dinners. Whimsical work is also featured at the Art Studio & Gallery which invites international guest artists to exhibit throughout the year. Eye-catching art and true relaxation is also enjoyed in the resort’s Living Room, where guests can decompress in comfort while reading one of the over 1,000 books available.

Looking forward, Joali will continue to offer unconventional luxury through the lens of the resort’s “Joy of Living” philosophy and captivate the immersive art experience by expanding on the art collection with individually commissioned pieces or being originated on the island creating the Artistic Documentation to showcase the effort, time and passion put into the projects by each artist and the Joali team.
