I Am Our Story

Our Story

I AM THE OCEAN, The Art Luxury House was born from the creative inspiration of Siddhi and A.D Desai’s passion and appreciation for art in all its majestic forms. The Art Luxury House endeavors to Create Conscious Change in order to create a better future for coexistence.

But I AM THE OCEAN, is not about its two Co-Creators. It is about each individual who shares our vision.
‍
The “I” in our name is not about us, it is about “You."
‍
You Are The Ocean.
‍
You are the writer of your own story. Make it your own.

Our Story

Siddhi
Desai

Siddhi Desai is a mother to two beautiful young children. She is a biotechnologist by education; spiritualist by religion; art enthusiast by passion; and eco-conscious by moral obligation.
‍
She is the Chief Visionary, Creator, and Art Director of I AM THE OCEAN, The Art Luxury House.
‍
She has a deep passion and diverse interests in the realms of science, technology, spirituality, philosophy, art, design, and timeless luxury.

Born and raised in Surat, India; educated in Bangalore, India and Scotland with BSc & MSc degrees in Biotechnology; and residing near Miami, FL, Siddhi's global experiences helped shape her views on the importance of celebrating diversity and oneness. Her roots in science helped her realize the urgent need for humanity to move towards a sustainable lifestyle.

She strongly believes that sustainability and luxury are two sides of the same coin.

She hopes to redefine conventional perceptions of luxury and elevate sustainability to the apex of luxury by introducing I AM THE OCEAN to the world.

A.d
Desai

A.D Desai is a father, husband, son, art appreciator, whisk(e)y enthusiast, Chicago sports devotee, and Co-Creator of I AM THE OCEAN, The Art Luxury House.
‍
A second-generation Indian-American, he was born in Chicago and raised near Miami. He earned his MBA from Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management and later worked as a strategy consultant with the Boston Consulting Group (BCG).
‍
He is fascinated by the paradox of identity: considered Indian in America, yet American when in India. For him, identity flows like the Ocean, unbound and borderless.

He considers himself simply a citizen of the world.

A.D believes deeply in the vision Siddhi has created with I AM THE OCEAN, a philosophy with the power to Create Conscious Change for humanity and nature. Together, with his better half and co-creator, they are building a brand that sings with soul, artistry, and rebellion.
