The Phoenix Print

Personal transformation and inner alchemy has been a continual theme in my life. Art is one of the main outlets I use to express and bring into physical existence the evolution of these metaphysical and spiritual experiences. Confined within the bounds of a canvas, the images I find myself channeling and releasing from my imagination, are the energetic depictions of those formless experiences, in colored figurative and abstract motions. My process is a time-based function, one that allows the images to emerge and form themselves organically over time; through the purification and maturing of the self, the artwork is perfected. There is a distinct layering from vagueness to detailing across the different series I have produced. These paintings encapsulate the spectrum of feeling, wounding and healing I have explored on my path and allow me to understand the mechanics of human consciousness. I am a self-taught avid painter, acquainted with the brush and stroke since as far as I can remember, who loves the alchemy of mixed medium; acrylic, glass paint, oil, textile paint, layering cement powder and anything I can get my hands on. I am Lebanese of origin, currently living in London United Kingdom. I am an architect by profession, an alchemist in spirit, and an artist at heart. My artwork has always been a personal intimate endeavor that takes place in my humble home-based studio.
