A high-end hotel that opens its doors in a country, gives all who stay there a direct access to the culture of the country. But is that enough to understand the culture of a place, even with a highly sophisticated design, the excellent choice and environment of the site, the care given to every detail, and quality of the services offered? Culture is the DNA of a people, a unique way to connect with their history, discover their traditions, and understand their uniqueness. Travelers are sensitive to local humanities – that’s what drives them to travel, and instills in them the desire to understand how others live on our planet. But standing between two groups understanding each other, is the barrier of language. That’s what makes art so important, in overcoming it.

Silapix.com intend to promote the idea that a hotel can also be an art gallery / museum. There, travelers would stay temporarily, immersing themselves in culture and traditions through works of art and educational content specially crafted for this purpose. If the interior design of a place gives it a unique ambiance, the art gives it a soul. It invites you to look beyond aesthetics, to penetrate the essence of the country and its people. But what good is exhibiting works of art, without offering the viewer some explanation? It would be akin to enjoying a lovely meal, without the company of a good wine. The journey would be unfinished, the satisfaction only partial. After all, an artwork exists only within the context it was created, by the artist who made it. No matter how much pleasure it provides, it is the knowledge that comes with it, that permits a real dialogue with the culture.
