This piece is of a very famous Lebanese composer, songwriter, playwright, and the son of the legend Lebanese singer fairuz. This piece is dedicated to my late father and Ziad Rahbani was a figure he adored that exposed Lebanese culture, society and the civil war in a very satirical and controversial ways. I grew up listening to his satirical songs and came to adore him just as much as his mother Fairuz, who is my muse as I have painted and drew her many times. The style I adopted early on as an artist was of minimal detail with monochromatic colour with an abstract background. However, in contrast I relied heavily on realism when it came to the face of the subject. This style continues with the Ziad piece and still continues with my portraits. The extreme worlds of realism and abstract resonates with who I am as an artist and the sense of identity I want to convey to the audience.

WEBSITE: www.zenadabbous.com BIOGRAPHY Zena Dabbous is a Lebanese-Canadian visual artist who has polarized styles in her paintings, drawings, and mural work---from conceptual abstract figures in acrylics and mixed media, to abstract realism portraits in oil paint. Her multi-cultural and eclectic upbringing brings a novel and conceptual perspective to her artwork and the representation of women is very important to her creations. Zena has exhibited, sold work, and has the Artist Recognition icon on SaatchiArt online. She has done mural artwork in well-known establishments in Kuwait like Bloomingdales’ Middle East and Crystal Towers. She has also collaborated in an important mural collaboration project for the US Embassy that is indefinitely exhibited at Kuwait's Museum of Modern Art. Additionally, she featured in local newspapers and had a featured Interview published at 123ART Magazine-online art magazine based in New York. Through a short time of a couple of years, Zena went from a self-taught artist to a professional. As an emerging artist, she is looking forward to more work, exhibitions, and projects in the future. She currently lives in Kuwait and works at an Art Studio/Gallery, as well as offering freelance work. STATEMENT: As a self-taught artist, I believe in the journey of self discovery through art, as well as emphasizing conceptualization. Creativity starts with an idea, and that should be the most important factor. By mixing realism and abstract in portraits, and minimalism and conceptualism in my figurative work, these discrepant styles can be viewed as a projection of my character and experiences. Women represented with limited colour pallets and minimal detail are common themes to my work.
