When it opens this week, the new Hotel Zena in Washington, D.C., will make a powerful statement about powerful women. The groundbreaking hotel, part of the Viceroy Hotels & Resorts, has commissioned more than 60 works of art that celebrate female empowerment.
Even before they step inside, guests will be greeted by colorful, seven-story-tall murals on the building’s façade, depicting enormous female warriors who keep watch over the hotel and its surrounding Logan Circle neighborhood.The looming work was created by D.C.-based artist and designer Cita Sadeli, better known as Miss Chelove, who has previously collaborated with everyone from the Smithsonian Institute to Apple.
