Charbel Abou Zeidan
°1978, Beirut, Lebanon.
Lives and works in Kortrijk, Belgium.
Inspired by architecture (my studies), art (my passion) and fashion (my job) , my art is a fusion of these 3 elements.Contrasts attracts me and trigger my creativity. Experimenting with colours, manipulating shapes and creating textures is my passion.
I master a wide range of disciplines techniques to express my ideas .I draw, paint and sculpt. I love working with different materials, mixing and combining various techniques, such as pastel mixed with silicone on linen canvas or charcoal and latex on cotton canvas or stitching cardboard and transforming it to sculptural elements….
I am not afraid to experiment.
