At Hong Kong’s 2018 Art Basel, Swiss watchmaker Audemars Piguet presented another innovative concept in the Collectors lounge.
Chilean artist and designer Sebastian Errazuriz presented the last in a trilogy of installations. Titled “Foundations”, Errazuriz’s immersive design for 2018 is based on iron ore, the natural resource at the heart of steel and one of the principal resources for watchmakers.
Italian artist Quayola’s new photographic series, titled “Remains: Vallée de Joux” unifies the natural roots of Audemars Piguet with his own visual artistry.
Together, the two artists transformed the space into a somewhat fantastical hideaway with their respective creations, which further serve as the backdrop for Audemars Piguet’s highly trained watchmakers to demonstrate their craft.
