Artist Sarah Meyohas and architect Ben Dobbin, lead of Foster + Partners' San Francisco office, discuss their creative processes in a conversation published by Cultured. Meyohas, known for her conceptual work exploring technology across film, cryptocurrency, and holograms, recently installed a serpentine wall at Desert X and served as an executive producer on the Oscar-winning film *The Brutalist*. Dobbin, whose portfolio includes Apple Park and Vivaldi Towers, collaborated with The Dalmore distillery on the third Luminary series masterpiece, creating a sculptural display for two rare 52-year-aged whisky bottles, one auctioned at Sotheby's. The pair compare notes on designing spaces that shape human experience, from Meyohas's Bell Labs-inspired film *Cloud of Petals* to Dobbin's intimate restaurants in Tuscany.
This conversation matters because it bridges the worlds of visual art and architecture, highlighting how both disciplines prioritize experiential storytelling and human-scale design. Meyohas's shift into architectural installations and Dobbin's turn to sculptural whisky presentations reflect a growing cross-pollination between fine art, design, and luxury branding. The article underscores how artists and architects increasingly collaborate with heritage brands like The Dalmore, merging conceptual rigor with commercial craftsmanship, and signals a broader trend of interdisciplinary practice in the contemporary art world.
