A popular destination just a short flight away from the Gulf countries, the Maldives is always a popular destination for those looking for peace, relaxation and connection with their loved ones. Jawali Maldives, the first and only luxury art resort in the Maldives, offers a unique experience in the Indian Ocean archipelago. .
Located on Muravandhoo Island in the remote North Raa Atoll, Jawali Maldives Resort offers visitors an experience focused on art, culture and interactive travel. The exquisite resort invites guests to explore their creative side as a way to relax and rejuvenate the mind, body and spirit, with the launch of a new art festival and interactive activities such as painting, pottery making and sculpture.
Studies show that creativity helps people get rid of stress and anxiety. Jawali Maldives encourages guests to meditate and get closer to nature by organizing innovative events and workshops. This year the luxury resort is collaborating with Austrian art consultant and curator Tatjana Jeckmen-Waldeck to offer guests a range of art experiences.
Gecmen-Waldeck brings to the resort its artistic flair, as well as a strong network of galleries, collectors, auction houses and contemporary artists that will be on display throughout the year, with artists bringing their work to the island regularly in the form of limited or permanent exhibitions.
The festival kicks off on April 15, internationally known as World Art Day, when a group of artists who care about sustainability and environmental preservation will create pieces of art inspired by the nature around them. Innovative exhibitions and installations will continue to be available during Eid Al Fitr and the rest of 2023. Unique art installations will be spread across the island, as Jawali Maldives believes that art should be experienced, not just seen.
The island now houses unique pieces of art, with each piece created using recycled, natural or local materials that blend in with the island's natural beauty. Among the wonderful pieces of art that guests are invited to experience are the giant ray tree and the local architecture, in addition to the terracotta furniture, small ceramic chairs and much more.
