Part of a series of self portraits titled: My Self, taken in moments of madness, hopelessness, happiness, inspiration, frustration, sprightliness, euphoria and utter non-chalence. I was alone with my camera and 2 meters of red Tulle fabric. Thought I would wrap my head with the fabric and take a head shot. The fabric was terrifically unruly and would not stay in place so much that I grabbed it with my hand and managed to photograph the one eye only. This image was the one for me. I proceeded to add eye makeup in post production to elevate her stature and what would do that better than a captivating royal Egyptian kohl adornment of the eye. Finally I painted around the image so the viewer concentrates on the eye, the veil, the disquietness and edginess of the hand. Hence Miss Alexandria… The woman is veiled however she is not hiding. She is emerging, exposing, prohibitively and radically peering with determination. Look into my eyes!

France
Born in Egypt, raised in Lebanon, I then moved to Canada where I trained and worked as a professional photographer. The next adventure took me to London (UK) where I trained as a chef before creating Joie de Vivre, my own Mediterranean restaurant, which I operated for 10 fabulous years. To spice up my life, I embarked on a series of culinary explorations of North America, Mexico, Brazil, Europe, Japan, China, south-east Asia and North Africa. These adventures greatly influenced my cooking, food styling and culinary photography. To continue my journey, I am now based in France where I focus on food as art.
