FARI ART ATELIER
DANIEL ARSHAM

Patina Maldives & The Artling are thrilled to have Daniel Arsham for its Art Residency in the Fari Art Atelier program.

Based in New York, Daniel Arsham’s work exists at the intersection of art, architecture and performance. Themes of past, present and future are explored while skirting the line between romanticism and pop art. He founded the pioneering architecture firm Snarkitecture with partner Alex Mustonen in 2007. Collaboration continues to be a key cornerstone of his practice—realizing high-profile projects with music producer Pharrell Williams and designer Hedi Slimane, as well as Dior, Porsche, and Rimowa.

Daniel Arsham will serve his residency with a series of limited events on 3, 4 and 5 March 2022, after which his completed artworks inspired by his time on Patina Maldives will be exhibited for a three-month period at the Fari Art Atelier.
