“Mixed Media,” Featuring local artist Laurie Breen and Beruit-based artist Fadi ElChamaa, January 11 through Feb 22, 2025
“I produce contemporary mixed-media paintings, working in an expressive, abstract manner. My pieces are distinctive in their use of layering, bold colors, and appealing forms. The first layer I put down is never intended to be the last.” Laurie Breen
“I didn’t follow the conventional path. I emerged from Beirut—a city marked by war—with a stutter that found its voice through art. At 20, I found my way to a paintbrush, later refining my artistic voice after a detour through advertising. My journey across eight cities, immersed in their vibrancy, shaped the raw and urgent strokes that define my work today.” Fadi ElChamaa
Fadi ElChamaa is represented by Danielle Moussalli, Founder and artistic Director of Bridging Brushes, located in Potomac, MD. Although Fadi will not be at the opening, we will have a video message from the artist.
