Ocean Archaeology of Our Time by Pamela Longobardi
Renowned conceptual artist and environmental activist Pamela Longobardi addresses the urgent problem of marine plastic pollution through her impactful work. Longobardi ingeniously repurposes non-degradable plastic waste, transforming it into captivating abstract paintings, intricate assemblages, and impressive large-scale installations. Her latest masterpiece, unveiled at Patina Maldives, stands as a testament
to commitment towards environmental stewardship. This permanent installation incorporates 21.73kg of plastics collected during a beach cleanup, serving as a powerful reminder of our collective responsibility to safeguard the oceans. Longobardi’s artwork at Patina not only captivates viewers aesthetically but also prompts reflection on the pressing need to address and mitigate the impact of plastic pollution on our marine ecosystems.

Interactive Coral Regeneration Programme
Patina Maldives adopts a holistic approach to marine conservation, offering guests an immersive coral restoration experience. Guests participate in hands-on ceramic hand-building sessions to craft unique plates used by the resort’s marine biologists in restoration efforts. Our marine biologist, alongside guests, have completed 70 coral frames, crafted 360 ceramic structures, and planted 2,300 coral fragments into the house reef since the project’s launch in 2022.
Impactful Island Clean-Up Initiatives
Our dedication to preserving the ocean goes beyond the confines of our resort. Through collective action, 176 participants joined forces to remove 315.4kg of waste, including 1000kg of both dead corals and other debris. Notably, our recent island cleaning with the Capella leadership team yielded the collection of 39kg of plastics. These initiatives underscore the importance of proactive cleaning measures in sustaining our environment.
