Description
Nafas (in Arabic, translates to “Deep Breath") depicts a man in profile, wearing a traditional red and white keffiyeh, calmly smoking in front of a dense green backdrop of stylized cannabis leaves. The work references the long-standing, controversial practice of cannabis cultivation in Lebanon's Bekaa Valley, blending cultural identity with regional specificity.
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.
