My artistic practice is grounded in research, philosophy and lived experience, shaped by both individual and collective realities in Lebanon and beyond. I investigate posthumanist thought, critically engaging with anthropocentrism and exploring the interdependence between human bodies, non-human entities and technological systems. Through this lens, I approach art as a method of inquiry and communication, using materiality as a language capable of conveying complex ideas, emotions and embodied experiences.
I work across drawing, painting, sculpture and installation, employing a wide range of media including chemical and natural acrylics, watercolour, spray paint, charcoal, soft and oil pastels, and ink. I often choose unconventional surfaces such as polyester tablecloths and rusted bed sheets, alongside sculptural materials that include industrial, found, natural and synthetic elements — ranging from wire and plastic to latex, silicone, salt and sugar. These materials are not merely formal choices but conceptual tools, carrying social, political and ecological meaning. Their physical properties allow me to explore ideas of contamination, fragility, resilience and transformation.
Central to my practice is the deconstruction of the body — both human and non-human — as a way of examining its inseparability from the environment. I challenge the notion of the body as a closed or autonomous entity, instead understanding it as porous and continuously shaped by ecological systems. Polluted water containing microplastics and toxins moves through rivers, plants and food chains, ultimately becoming part of our own biological makeup. This circulation of matter demonstrates how environmental harm is distributed across bodies and systems, revealing shared vulnerability and responsibility.
