About

Art Pharmacy is Australia's leading art and placemaking consultancy and the world's first arts and culture B-Corp. For over 20 years we have worked with developers, architects, councils and corporate clients to embed art into the buildings and public spaces where people actually spend their lives. All About Art is our conversation series and this is our second evening. Learn more at artpharmacy.com.au

Walk into a great room and you feel it before you can explain it. The light, the scale, the thing on the wall or moving on a screen in the lobby. That's not an accident. Someone designed for that feeling, on purpose.

Building Atmosphere goes behind the scenes of how art shapes a space, from the artwork on the wall to the digital work on the screen. It's a conversation between the people who build that feeling into a room, hosted by Emilya Colliver, Founder and CEO of Art Pharmacy, with a panel featuring:

Brooke Lloyd, Director of Interior Design, Cox Architecture
Edward Pearse, Creative Director, Time and Place

We'll talk about the lobby and the screen, the brief and the feeling, the permanent collection and the digital activation, and what Sydney's spaces could be doing that they're not doing yet.

No fluff. Just an honest look at what it takes to build atmosphere, with drinks in hand at Ace Hotel Sydney.

This event is part of a three-part series presented by Art Pharmacy in partnership with Ace Hotel Sydney. Mark your diaries for the final event on 12 November, All About Art Series…
