Nature takes over the Cartier pavilion in Art Dubai. Walls come to life with wild animals and plants, complete with lighting and sound. Blurring the boundaries of reality, fauna and flora take the stage in a life-size theatre of the wild.
‘Cartier Naturellement’, imagined by the artist Christophe Ponceau, is inhabited by dazzling animals and flowers, where the rarest of substances are used to evoke fur, flowers, feathers and twinkling eyes. It is a magical menagerie and a conservatory of light, soothed by the regal song of a bird in rubies or sapphires, or by the exhilarating scent of an orchid whose heart lulls in the depths of white diamonds.
Also, staged in this enchanting setting “Aquarium”, a mobile installation of precious stones by the Brazilian artist Beatriz Milhazes and crafted by the Ateliers Cartier, as commissioned by the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain.
“Cartier has always been passionate about nature, which has been present at the House since its very origins. And today with Cartier Naturellement creations we return to reinforce again this passion by creating a dream of nature, and a nature of a dream, with sumptuously beautiful, thrilling and wild pieces of jewellery” said Mr. Bernard Fornas, President Cartier International on this occasion.
