What makes us so special?
Surprising. Intriguing. Stimulating. As the theme of the trendy Hotel BLOOM! in Brussels is in its name, we wanted a unique way to illustrate this right inside the spacious rooms. So we thought of painting them to illustrate the Bloom theme. But how? And by whom?
We contacted ELIA, the European League of the Institutes of the Arts - a body that represents almost 350 art institutes across 47 countries and encompasses every creative art form.
ELIA handled the artistic side of the project: looking for trendy young European artists through member institutes, setting up a selection committee and selecting the artists based on specific criteria. (http://www.elia-artschools.org)
The result is a totally unique view inside the contemporary art world across Europe. All this inside your Brussels hotel, providing both a fashionable touch to each hotel room and a stimulating environment for the visitor.
