Description
This luminous composition captures the essence of a coastal escape. Soft brushstrokes blend into a dreamy atmosphere. The palette breathes with airy whites and deep azure tones. Golden light spills across the horizon. It evokes the warmth of a summer afternoon.
The scene focuses on several sailboats drifting on a shimmering sea. Their sails are rendered with minimalist, fluid lines. These shapes float weightlessly amidst an impressionistic haze. The artist prioritizes emotion over precision. Every stroke suggests the movement of wind and water.
The interplay of warm yellows and cool blues creates a vibrant harmony. This artwork transforms a simple maritime view into a poetic meditation. The composition remains open and breathable. It invites the viewer to lose themselves in the vastness of the sky. The light reflects off the surface in fragmented glints of color. A delicate balance exists between abstraction and representation. The final effect is one of serenity and timelessness. The piece concludes with a discreet signature in the lower right corner.
Presentation
Born in Chebanieh, Lebanon; Joanna Raad is a Lebanese multidisciplinary artist. As a professional set designer/art director, she worked on several renowned TV programs and series, TV commercials, music videos, short feature films and theatre plays. Joanna started to draw at a very young age. Her passion for drawing became progressively professional. She took extra-curricular painting classes with Odile Mazloum, Haidar Hammawi, Fouad Tomb, Jean-Paul, and Emmanuel Guiragossian. Reconstruction of the past and compiling archives accompanied her artistic research.
Drawing is more her passion than painting. For the artist, there is freedom in drawing, as she can quickly express herself within the intimacy of a bedroom, in a coffee shop, or even on a plane. She considers drawing on paper an intimate gesture, almost like writing a diary. Raad paints her story in a naive/neo-expressionist style. It all started with obsessive flashbacks doodled on recycled paper with oil pastels. Photography was rare in the 70ies in Beirut. This triggered the artist to reconstitute her past from her 'emotional memory. The representations of the 'scenes' from the past include a theatrical and cinematographic feel: Close-ups," large shots", the space of her school, Grandma's home, etc. The vivid and saturated colors connect with her childhood in the 70's era.
She is also a lecturer at the faculty of arts and art history of many renowned universities in Lebanon. She has a Ph.D. in Theater, a Master's in Cinema, and a BA in performing art from the Saint-Joseph University in Beirut (USJ/IESAV). She is also a researcher on the History of modern art and the correspondences between arts.
