GIGI Studios presents its collaboration with El Silencio Ibiza for the summer of 2023. A multidisciplinary action inspired by the Ibizan sunset and the duality of an island that moves between the calm of the day and the frenzy of the night. The collaboration has materialised in a capsule collection of three limited edition sunglasses, which will be available in the pop-up store built in El Silencio Ibiza and the brand’s website during the action.

The different gradations of Ibiza’s light can be found in the three acetate models specially launched for this capsule: RAY, OMBRA and GOLDEN. The collection has been worked on intensively to achieve the most representative colours of the Mediterranean sunset and the Calm & Ecstasy concept, which aims to show the two souls of the island.

POP-UP Store

The first pop-up store of GIGI Studios will be open during the whole summer season without interruption at the entrance of El Silencio Ibiza, just opposite the swimming pool. From 12 pm to 10 pm at the pop-up store, the capsule collection will be available alongside a selection of the brand’s most iconic and representative sunglasses.

The pop-up has been designed by the interior designer Isern Serra’s team, one of the most renowned in Barcelona. The colours and materials give continuity to the tribute to the sun and the Mediterranean. The circles and the clean and luminous colours are part of Serra’s essence.

The Oracle, Immersive Art Curated by GIGI Studios

Artist and music producer Dan Ghenacia and the Alpha Wave Experience collective will present their installation, The Oracle, at El Silencio, an immersive artwork curated by GIGI Studios. This remarkable piece constitutes a journey into the viewer’s interior, thanks to the lamps inspired by The Dreamachine —a 1960s light installation by one of the most renowned representatives of the beat generation, Bryon Gysin. The artwork can be visited daily during the summer, from 12 pm to 10 pm.

“Brandt has been an exceptional partner to CNIB, and their support continues to have a significant impact on the lives of our participants across Canada,” says Christall Beaudry, Vice President, Western Canada at CNIB. “This historic donation will profoundly shape CNIB’s endeavors in Saskatchewan, while also enabling the growth of the Mobile Hub and CNIB Guide Dogs programs across Canada.”

“The work of CNIB is a gamechanger for thousands of Canadians whose lives have been impacted by blindness,” says Shaun Semple, Brandt CEO. “Brandt is proud to offer tangible support for critical community programming through CNIB and its many initiatives.”

The symbolic presentation of the generous donation took place on July 6th, during a Saskatchewan Roughriders game, emphasizing the shared vision of fostering positive change in the community.
