Mohamad KhayataTakhalli - To Leave Of - Large Neutral Original Painting on Canvas2023
2023
About the Item
Mohamad Khayata’s original figurative artworks are the result of five years of displacement and deal with themes of migration, memory, and identity. Mohamad’s paintings exhibit an array of emotions, ranging from bliss and comfort to tension and uncertainty. Many of his artworks portray a sense of transience, which is all the more palpable when considering that Khayata's intimate work is a tribute to displaced people and to their daily life stories that, far from familiar surroundings, are filled with effort and hope.
Khayata created this original painting with acrylic paint on canvas. It measures 78 inches high by 51 inches wide. This artwork was created in the artist's new studio after his previous studio was destroyed in the 2020 blast in Beirut. It is signed by the artist on the back of the canvas. This painting is stretched, wired, and ready to hang. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included with this original work.
This artwork is part of a new series of imagery by the artist, in which Khayata's illustrative paintings are strategically placed to mingle with people and the environment. These paintings amass a memorial narrative; connecting the artist and the viewer to the rich cultural heritage of Syria and the larger narrative of what it means to be home.
Born in Damascus, Syria, artist Mohamad Khayata was forced to flee his home country due to ongoing political conflict. Khayata has been living in Beirut, Lebanon since 2012. His work is a resounding call for transformation and unity within his home country. His photography project "Stitching my Syria back" was chosen to be part of Journeys Festival International 2016 as a landmark for the “Look up” project in Leicester, where his photographs were installed on ten buildings. During this public exhibition coordinated with the Royal Institute of British Architects, his photographs were installed on ten buildings, fostering a deeper connection between art and the public, highlighting empowerment and enriching a younger generation’s aspirations for the future.
In the last few years, Khayata has participated in an increasing number of collective exhibitions across Europe and the Middle East, where his distinctive style and original approach have captivated audiences, leading to sold-out exhibitions each time, cementing his status as a sought-after artist in the global art scene. Holding his BA in Fine Arts obtained at Damascus University, Khayata is a bastion of Syrian legacy, memory, home, and happiness.
