PINK PALM DREAMING AT THE BEVERLY HILLS HOTEL
By: Aqualillies Posted On: August 16, 2017This week, we traveled over to the iconic Beverly Hills Hotel to marvel at the beautiful art installation, “Le Refuge”, by artist Marc Ange. We have a special place in our hearts for the iconic hotel, where we had our Residency Show Series with Cointreau back in 2012!
Placed perfectly in their citrus garden, Le Refuge’s pink palm leaves felt like an absolute dream.
According to Haute Living: Marc Ange first unveiled Le Refuge during Milan Design Week on April 2017, in collaboration with Wallpaper magazine and The Invisible Collection. As the name itself suggests, Le Refuge is a place where one finds comfort and peace, it provokes an escape from reality to a jungle-like dream.
“It is the projection of a childhood memory. Its large leaves form a shelter under the sun, away from reality, just like those of the imaginary jungle that grows in the room of a child who seeks escape” says Ange, who drew inspiration for the creation of the piece from his new life in Los Angeles. He adds, “With its iconic pink facade, legendary history and magical setting, The Beverly Hills Hotel is a great setting to showcase Le Refuge.”
