With artworks ranging from large oil on canvas works to video and light box installations, this new approach is breathing life into the idea of what hotels can look like, and the experience that can engage the visitor.

QT is one of the leaders in this space with Nic Graham‘s innovative vision to build a collection for the hotel chain that can be moved from site to site as required. Some works are commissioned for the specific location, while others are acquired ‘off the shelf’.
