Typoe Takes His Signature Style to Miami Beach Hotel

Faena wanted to offer a glimpse of their artistic vision through an innovative series of works at nearby Casa Claridge’s. Though this historic hotel has numerous spaces to install art (from walls to a striking atrium), the Faena Group decided to turn to the humble elevator as the literal vehicle for their current project, aptly titled ELEVATE.

ELEVATE, a vertical platform is an ascending gallery for artistic intervention. A program for rotating site-specific installations of emerging to mid-career Miami-based artists, elevate promotes the creation of active, participatory, and immersive art practices.

For Getting Up, Typoe moved away from his signature gunpowder paintings in order to create an entirely immersive and experiential installation that encouraged the public to play and stay awhile. The installation required viewer participation in what was both a childhood pastime and a transgressive act of auto-definition. Audience interaction became a means of communicating with the world and of marking one’s existence. Typoe succeeded in elongating time spent in transit, transforming this in-between space into an autobiographical time capsule of history and geography.
