Description
This artwork evokes my early childhood memories living in Beirut, watching our neighbours, shopkeepers, everyone working together, clothes on the lines flying, everyone living peacefully, respectful of one another and in harmony.

I used to love watching the food baskets being lowered to the shop below, the money inside the basket, then filled up with food and pulled back up by the person who had ordered the day's groceries! It really was a village of peace.

Presentation

Helen Zughaib was born in Beirut, Lebanon, living in the Middle East and Europe before moving to America to study art at Syracuse University. Helen currently lives in Washington, DC. As an Arab American, Helen feels that her background allows her to approach experiences as an observer of both Arab and American cultures. She paints primarily in gouache, ink on board, and canvas.

Her work has been widely exhibited in galleries and museums in the United States, Europe and Lebanon. Her paintings are included in many private and public collections, including the White House, World Bank, Library of Congress, US Consulate General, Vancouver, Canada, American Embassy in Baghdad, Iraq, the Arab American National Museum in Detroit, Michigan, and the Minneapolis Institute of Art.  

Her paintings are included in the DC Art Bank Collection and she has received the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities Fellowship award in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020. 

Her work has been included in Art in Embassy State Department exhibitions abroad, including Brunei, Nicaragua, Mauritius, Iraq, Belgium, Lebanon and Saudi Arabia. Helen has served as Cultural Envoy to Palestine, Switzerland and Saudi Arabia. Her paintings have been gifted to heads of state by President Obama and former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton.
