Monaco Life is a leading English-language digital news and lifestyle platform based in Monaco, recognized for its original, on-the-ground journalism. Focused on Monaco and the French Riviera, it provides trusted coverage of current affairs, culture, and major events. The publication plays a key role in informing the Principality’s international community through accessible and high-quality reporting.
Houda Bakkali stands out for her pioneering work at the crossroads of art and technology. In August 2020, she presented the first augmented reality canvas exhibited during the first contemporary art salon held after the COVID-19 lockdown. The event took place at the iconic Monte Carlo Circus space, symbolizing the revival of cultural life in Monaco.
Her vibrant mixed-media artwork Life Is Beautiful demonstrated the power of digital art as both an informative and immersive medium. By integrating augmented reality into traditional artistic formats, Houda Bakkali introduced a distinctive concept that expands artistic expression into an interactive and experiential dimension.
This innovative approach has since been showcased at numerous private and cultural events across the Principality of Monaco.
