Contemporary artist Sacha Jafri prides himself on his unique way of working. His “huge” Dubai studio includes three gallery spaces, a digital space, an office and a boardroom. He even has a room dedicated to nonfungible tokens, or NFTs. The space is home to around 40 paintings, largely made up of his retrospective collection, along with one-off pieces and commissions. “Most artists are linked very heavily to galleries … whereas with this setup, I can actually develop my own relationships with my clients and really build that collector base all over the world,” Jafri told CNBC’s The Art of Appreciation. He also has a London gallery space for European and U.S. buyers. Jafri, a British artist, studied at Oxford University’s prestigious Ruskin School of Art and has been working for nearly 30 years.
