Adib
From finance to art, my love for numbers is evident in my practice. Inspired by spirituality, I strive to create a universal visual language that highlights the dualities and interconnectedness in life.
Born in Lebanon in 1981, I spent half my life in Canada. Later in life, a growing sensitivity to human expression sparked a profound period of self-discovery, allowing the artist within to emerge in 2020. Self-taught, with guidance from a fellow artist and art historian, my artistic journey began with charcoal portraits, evolving into surreal acrylic characters and eventually abstraction.
In 2023, I participated in a collective exhibition in Beirut. My current work delves into the profundity of the square canvas, where balance and symmetry evoke stability and order. The circular form within integrates the material and spiritual worlds, embodying the duality of structure and fluidity, ultimately symbolizing the journey from the external world to the inner self.
