MAKHAD, MIREILLE MERHEJ

Art

Vernissage: 15/05/2025 à 18:00

Du 16/05/2025 à 11:00 jusqu'au 02/06/2025 à 19:00

After completing her Associate's degree in Graphic Design and a Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts at LAU Beirut, Mireille moved to Paris, where she earned a Master's in Decorative Painting. When she returned to Beirut, she worked for years with renowned Lebanese interior designers.

In 2009, she returned to her personal artistic journey with renewed focus, concentrating on developing her visual language primarily through painting on canvas. Her work explores themes such as nostalgia for the past, solitude experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic, the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, and her deep love for her homeland.


I find myself in deep need of peace and unity, and with a profound longing for an end to the wars and massacres that have shattered countless souls and left me in a state of shock. Ruthless violence, soulless humanity, a planet being destroyed, rights being violated, and the beauty of life gradually fading away.

Amid this painful turmoil, my art emerges as an act of resistance and documentation, embodied in an exhibition filled with torn and overlapping flags. Among these flags, the Lebanese flag holds a special place, as a national symbol of resilience amid pain and suffering.

I also include the United Nations flag, not as a symbol of peace, but as a symbol of broken hope and a world that failed to protect human rights.

I present this exhibition as a cry in the face of a world that is increasingly broken, hoping it might awaken whatever conscience remains within us
