Biography
Raised in the heart of Beirut, Lebanon, my work is deeply shaped by the chaotic beauty of my surroundings.
I'm drawn to the tension between disorder and harmony. The unpredictability of my environment, especially during my childhood, continues to inform my visual language.
I'm especially drawn to provocative imagery; not for shock alone, but as a tool to create reaction, convey layered messages, and liberate myself from the codes and expectations imposed by society.
Through this, I aim to claim space for difference, discomfort, and truth I studied fashion design at ESMOD Beirut from 2017 to 2020, then shifted towards graphic design and new media, completing a master's degree in 2022 at IED in Florence
In 2024, I held my first solo exhibition, Silent Talks, at Atallier in Florence. The following year, I took part in the Sculptor Foundation's one-year anniversary collective show in Maaser El Chouf (Lebanon)
My practice explores identity, vulnerability, and confrontation. I use both bold and subtle visuals to reflect on personal and societal issues, often blurring the line between intimacy and resistance. My goal is not to comfort, but to stir, to evoke a spectrum of emotions, whether unsettling or tending.
And in 2025 he began a collaboration with the Tobian Art Gallery where some of his works are exhibited.
