Heritage Awali is offering a new experience to its Spa clients, hotel guests and external clients, since Tuesday 16 October. The journey in this stunning place now features another new dimension with the launch of an Art Gallery named SpArt. At start, Hélène Cassan and Delphine Toulet, respectively consultant and Corporate Manager of Seven Colours wanted to revamp the spa, but with the involvement of Clothilde Lefébure who oversaw the project, it has been transformed into a real art gallery. Heritage Awali hired the services of an expert, Charlotte d’Hotman from Imaaya Gallery, who also became the curator of the exhibition. She selected the seven artists featured for the launch. “We wanted to have art pieces that are related to relaxation, the soft and soothing aspects, but also the dynamic facet of Seven Colours”, explains Hélène Cassan.

“For us, the association of spa and art is more than complementary in the sense that the spa is the place where we are more open, where all the senses are awake, where we can be in a contemplative phase”, says Clothide Lefébure, who explains that the initiative aims at bringing art to the Domaine de Bel Ombre and to make known “Mauritian artists who are not known by everyone”. The seven first artists featured are Gada Condreau, Kahlid Nazroo, Dévid, Lalit and Mila Gupta, Nalini Treebohun and Elizabeth de Marcy Chelin. The art works will be on exhibition during six months.
