We spent an afternoon in Sarah Delaney’s studio S A R A H D E L A N E Y

Sarah is a Vancouver based artist whose work builds upon the material she is exploring. We asked where her work belongs, and Sarah responded simply and directly: off the screen and in person.

That instinct is what we look for when selecting artists for a space. Work that changes how a room feels, not just what hangs in it.

There's a costly assumption built into nearly every luxury development budget: that art is decoration.

When art sits in the FF&E line, sourced for consistency and cut first when budgets tighten, properties end up polished but interchangeable. The most resilient brands treat art differently. Not as a finish material, but as identity infrastructure: a foundational decision that shapes how a property is remembered, reviewed, and returned to.

Our latest Strategic Insight makes the case for moving art upstream, where identity is defined.

Creative Director Laurenn Machin highlights the work of Sophia Loeb, a São Paulo-born, London-based painter creating dense, layered surfaces built by hand with pigment, oil, and unconventional tools.

Loeb’s paintings read as landscapes in formation: primordial, tactile, and alive. The work invites viewers to see themselves as part of an interconnected natural world rather than observers of it.

Work like this doesn’t just hold a wall. It changes dwell, mood, and the way people relate to an environment, turning a passing glance into a reason to stay.

In healthcare, art is too often treated as the finishing touch.

Decades of research connect thoughtfully chosen art and nature imagery to measurable outcomes: lower stress and anxiety, reduced need for pain medication, shorter recovery times, and a better experience for patients, visitors, and staff alike.

The impact is real. The question is whether the work is chosen to deliver it.

This is the difference between decoration and curation with intent. We select work against what a space is built to do, then hold it to the same standard as any other strategic investment.

Meet Adad Hannah , an artist whose work moves across painting, sculpture, photography, video, and installation.

At the centre of it is a question he keeps returning to: how we experience art, and how one work can change the way we see another. We talked with him about historical projects, letting work go out into the world to live its own life, and keeping a deep practice open enough for anyone to step into.

This month, Creative Director, Laurenn Machin, highlights the work of Emma Fineman, a painter building intimate, symbolic worlds from the space between representation and abstraction.

Working in oil, encaustic, hessian, newsprint, and charcoal, Emma develops a personal iconography from signs and symbols that recur across faiths and histories.

Her figures arrive at once ghostly and monolithic, drawn from memory, mythology, and intuition rather than the observed world.

As she shared on the occasion of her solo exhibition Devotion at Alexander Berggruen, New York, "I really wanted to create work about following my truth, my desire, my inner core, my gut, my intuition."

Farmboy goes inside the Vancouver studio of an artist whose work has quietly evolved over the past several years.

What began as formal explorations of colour and composition has become something more symbolic, shaped by personal mythology, fatherhood, and a deep awe of British Columbia.

We sat down with to talk about process, evolution, and the patient observation that shapes everything he makes.
