‘The Art Maze’ World Tour, in partnership with UNESCO, is an unpresented collection
of 50 UNESCO World Heritage Sites, created by one of the most celebrated Artists in the world, Sacha Jafri, in celebration of UNESCO World Heritage Site’s 50th year anniversary and The Next 50, a year-long UNESCO campaign promoting interdisciplinary reflection on the future of the World’s Heritage.
Jafri, awarded by the UN for his humanitarian work, is unveiling his ‘Sagarmatha National Park – Mount
Everest’ painting, a spectacular 380cmx160cm three-canvas Triptych piece.
With this project, Jafri aims to reconnect humanity to our cultural heritage, our ancestral past and the beauty that surrounds us within our natural world, as well as shine a light on the desperately needed conversations on sustainability, conservation, compassion we need to action for a more hopeful future for the children of our world.”
Sacha Jafri, Artist & Philanthropist: “It is such an honour for me to partner with ‘The Art Maze’ and
UNESCO using the power of art to reconnect and inspire humanity from space and on earth. I can think of no better way to do that than through the natural and human-built heritage sites of our world,
and through the guiding light of the moon.”
“My two Projects, running side by side aim to reconnect and reunite humanity from Space and on Earth,
with the soul objective of leading us to a new world where the true meaning and power of the words ‘Love’,’Empathy’, and ‘Intention’ are fully realised and ingrained into every action we take on earth”
‘The Art Maze’ – Jafri’s collection of 50 UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Jafri’s ‘NASA Moon Landing’ – ‘We Rise Together with the Light of the Moon’, the first official artwork to be placed on the lunar surface of our moon. “As, from the darkness comes the light, I hope to use the power of art to inspire exploration, uplift the spirit, enlighten the soul, reconnect our world, omit intention-filled vibrations creating a higher frequency of consciousness that can evoke change, encourage a necessary reconnection and reunification of humanity.”
The money raised from these projects, with the help of UNESCO and Selenian, will go towards the
conservation and protection of our planet in the areas of: Education, Sustainability, Health, Equality, and
the conservation of our World Heritage Sites. Marcus Schaefer, Art Visionary & Curator: “Feeling such a strong connection to this great country, we are so excited to unveil Sacha’s latest painting with the people of Nepal at the majestic Mount Everest.”
Michael Croft, Head of Office and Representative to Nepal at UNESCO: “As we listen to communities
from the mountain regions and hear their perspective on tackling the dual challenges of climate change and sustainable tourism, we are at once motivated – and better informed – how best to fashion our own actions for change.”
UNESCO’s partnership with ‘The Art Maze’ and Sacha Jafri reinforces its mission of promoting inclusive,
interdisciplinary dialogues related to climate change, heritage conservation, sustainable tourism, and the
challenges these sites face in the context of climate change. In Nepal, the Organization is working to bring together mountain community leaders as part of The Next 50 dialogues.
‘The Art Maze unveiled on Mount Everest with UNESCO, the first-ever artwork to be unveiled on Mount
Everest, as Jafri’s Work reaches new horizons, a moment in history as art is seen and felt for the first time
on this uncharted landscape, at the highest point on our planet, continuing Jafri’s unprecedented
Philanthropic Journey for Humanity’
Raza Beig, Chairman of BoredPuma: “So excited to be able to announce my purchase of this monumental
painting – I now own a piece of a living Indian master, Sacha Jafri, but also, the artistic expression of the
world’s largest natural beauty – Mount Everest.”
