AQUALILLIES X MIAMI ART WEEK

By: Aqualillies Posted On: December 12, 2023

In early December each year, South Florida becomes the center of the art world when it plays host to over 20 art fairs, including Design Miami/ and Art Basel Miami Beach. We always love making a splash during this annual cultural fête, and have made appearances at various Miami Art Week events for the past decade. See more below from our performances throughout the years…

We appeared at Art Basel Miami Beach 2013 in Above and Below, an otherworldly film by Clara Cullen for Nowness that premiered at the annual art-world pilgrimage. Cullen shot the beguiling film on black and white Super 8 – watch the full film here.

During Miami Art Week 2016 we flipped our fins and made a splash for the Panerai Design Miami/ party that year, hosted by Design Miami/ founder Craig Robins at his lavish art-filled home on the Sunset Islands in Miami.

We celebrated the artists at Art Basel Miami Beach 2021 at the home of Miami legend Barbara Becker – we loved flipping our Mermaid AND Merman (!) fins for these fun photos with Steve Wilson, co-founder of the art-filled 21c Museum Hotels.

Tucked-away behind a leafy façade during Miami Art Week 2022, we surprised guests with an art-deco performance for Weishaupt Design Group‘s pool party held at the Avenue Road Miami Beach Villa! The beautiful Villa residence was designed in 1932 by Martin L. Hampton – a champion of Miami’s Art Deco vernacular. 

2023 RECAP: this past weekend, we dove into Nolcha Art Basel Miami Beach for an aquatic, fashion-focused performance showcasing 3D Meta Dress – a capsule collection of 3d-printed couture pieces! Every piece collected gave back a portion of proceeds to organizations like Girls Who Code and other Foundations helping to promote STEAM education for women and girls.
