JAI Hong Kong Art Week
Marking a first in our history, JAI transcended borders to celebrate our very first event beyond Thailand, truly embodying our borderless spirit. Our members embarked on an unparalleled journey during Hong Kong Art Week, where art and connections know no boundaries.
Sevva & Art Basel:
Our kickoff at Sevva was more than just an event; it was a co-creation brought to life by the vision of our founding members, Nero Ip (Founder of NeroKitchen) and Julien Garin (Founder of LE CERCLE). An exclusive sneak peek at Art Basel, before it opened to the public, placed JAI members at the heart of Hong Kong's art scene, setting the stage for a week of private revelations and inspirational encounters.
Carlyle & Co:
Ascending from Sevva’s historic ambiance, we transcended into the esteemed realm of Carlyle & Co, the most exclusive club in Hong Kong. Here, amidst the fading amber hues of the day, our esteemed members engaged in unparalleled networking, their conversations flowing as seamlessly as the exquisite cocktails in hand, all orchestrated to the refined beats spun by our founding member, Tiffany Chan (Founder of No.HYP).
NeroKitchen:
At NeroKitchen, we dined under a symphony of flavors, expertly composed by Chef Nero Ip himself. It wasn't just a meal; it was a binding agent, bringing together diverse individuals from across the globe, united by a shared passion for art. Chef Nero brought in an amazing local artist-curator, Sharky Chan, who brought talented local artists, Fai, Lau Kam hung, David, Mizuki, Nathalie de Coaster to share their stories behind each of the artworks that were hung around the venue.
This gathering was more than a gathering of members; it was a familial confluence, co-created and enhanced by the very people who make JAI a community. Each conversation, and each shared experience, reaffirmed the unique bond that JAI fosters – a haven for the creative, the inspired, and the visionary.
