Kempinski Marsa Arabia Resort

Developed and delivered through Anima Gallery, the comprehensive art program at Kempinski Marsa Malaz integrated bespoke commissions, sculptural installations, and curated artworks throughout the hotel.

The project features some of Qatar's largest bespoke lighting installations, composed of thousands of hand-blown glass elements suspended across the main atriums, creating monumental architectural focal points.

The program extends across guest rooms, presidential suites, corridors, restaurants, and public spaces, with sculptural works integrated into the landscaped gardens.

Together, these interventions establish a cohesive artistic identity in which art, light, and architecture shape the hotel's spatial experience.
