Description
Titled I Am Free, and That Is Why I Am Lost, after a line by Franz Kafka, the painting reflects on the paradox of freedom: the absence of boundaries can also mean the absence of direction. The figure's isolation suggests both liberation and disorientation, standing at the threshold of a space that promises movement yet offers no clear path forward.
Presentation
Born in 2000 in Beirut and living between Beirut and Florence, Chammaa uses painting to explore his identity and origins. His figurative work, often set in minimalist landscapes, addresses themes of identity, queer intimacy, solitude, and time.
Raised in a strict religious environment against a backdrop of persistent instability in Lebanon, he developed a keen sense of difference and independence. Recurring elements such as male bodies, horses, mountains, and water constitute symbolic and emotional spaces conducive to reflection. Through layering colors and textures, he explores the tension between vulnerability and strength, allowing them to coexist within the same space.
