Aloft Art Program allows local artists or galleries to display their work free of charge and demonstrates the hotel’s involvement with the local art communities. By bringing art into our hotel spaces, Aloft Hotels hope to make the appreciation of art more accessible to our guests. This program complements the design passion point of Aloft Hotels and is found in our properties worldwide.
“We are thrilled to display and present these amazing pieces of art. Julairat and Paphada are young, gifted artists with a very bright future and Aloft Bangkok — Sukhumvit 11 is delighted to support local rising artists. We’ve transformed our level 1 in to artistic space to encourage art lovers to come and admire these students’ creativity.” said Mr. Justin Malcolm, General Manager of Aloft Bangkok —Sukhumvit 11.
Ms. Julairat Khankhayan, age 23, has won gold medals for the 2nd and 4th National Youth and Juvenile Art Exhibition as well as a silver medal at the 6th exhibition of the same title. Her art reflects the journey from the real world to an abstract one, explaining how everything changes and returns to nature as we traverse from birth to death.
Ms. Paphada Sirisuwat, a 23-year old young artist with hearing impairment, has exhibited her paintings at several exhibitions including Silpa Bhirasri Day in 2011 and the Open House of Faculty of Painting, Sculpture and Graphic Arts, Silpakorn University in the same. Her paintings capture the beauty of nature through the picturesque view, using a strong use of turquoise used to convey a sense of tranquillity.
Aloft Art Program at the Aloft Bangkok — Sukhumvit 11 provides guests, local collectors and art lovers with an opportunity to enjoy these stunning works from our talented and aspiring Thai artists.
