COYA Dubai, the city’s most lively, vibrant and stylish Peruvian hotspot, is furthering its commitment to supporting local talented creatives by launching a new exhibition by Dubai artist Anna McKeown.
Born in Belfast, Northern Ireland, Anna is the mind behind the bright, colourful and popular art brand ‘Pop and Toast’, which is renowned for its enticing abstract paintings featuring bottles, portraits and figures.
Based between Dubai and Belfast, Anna is now delighted to bring her latest collection, ‘Obsession’, to the walls of COYA Dubai.
Influenced by fashion, the female figure, glamour, glossy magazines and celebrity culture, her bold and striking collage-based pieces perfectly compliment the eclectic style of the COYA brand. Inspired by the unconventional, monochromatic and bold compositions of iconic photographers such as Helmut Newton and Mario Testino, Anna’s distinctive, fashionable and seductive works are bound to catch the eye of every diner and socialite at COYA Dubai.
The ‘Obsession’ exhibition by Pop and Toast will launch in spectacular style on Sunday, May 15 with an elegant opening event, and the collection will remain available for guests to view at COYA Dubai throughout the summer.
This latest collaboration follows Anna’s key involvement in the COYA 10-year anniversary Pisco Jar Project. This saw the Dubai resident and other regional and international talents come together to decorate a number of commemorative Pisco Jars in honour of the brand’s unique Peruvian spirit and incredible success throughout the globe.
Anna’s jars, along with Pisco jars designed by other UAE-based artists, will remain up on display in the Pisco Bar at COYA Dubai after the global project launches on Sunday, May 29.
With the official 10-year anniversary of COYA coming up on Saturday, November 12, 2022, more special birthday events and activations at COYA Dubai will be announced very soon.
