Beauty and personal care brand Sol de Janeiro opened “Jardim Sol de Janeiro: A Garden for the Senses” at the Miami Beach Botanical Garden in collaboration with this year’s Art Basel Miami Beach. The instillation will run from December 4 to 8, 2024.
The instillation was created in collaboration with three emerging Brazilian artists: Niege Borges, Barbara Tamilin, and Amanda Lobos. Each artist reimagined the iconic phone booths found around Rio de Janeiro, known as orelhões (“big ears” in Portuguese). The phone booths are decorated with floral arrangements original artwork inspired by Sol de Janeiro’s signature scents.
“Jardim Sol de Janeiro is so close to my heart — it’s our way of showing just how magical the connection between art and fragrance can be,” said Heela Yang, co-founder and chief executive officer of Sol de Janeiro. “By bringing together our Cheirosa perfume mists and the amazing creativity of some incredibly talented Brazilian artists, we’re inviting you to step into a sensory journey that celebrates the beauty, energy, and spirit of Brazil.”
The Jardim Sol de Janeiro exhibit was creating using eco-friendly practices and locally sourced materials. The brand stated that remaining flowers and plants will be donated to local organizations.
