Magnetic Memories
The installation presented a reel to reel tape recorder connected to a suspended 5 min loop of magnetic tape that extended outward from the machine and stretched across a white panel before returning to the recorder. The tape moved continuously through the system, forming a physical and sonic circuit within the gallery space. Its path across the panel created a series of horizontal lines that functioned as both a structural element and a visual translation of the recorded signal.
Architones (Ongoing)
Architones is an ongoing exploration to unearth the profound connection between architectural buildings or monuments and their acoustic essence. The aim is to document, preserve, and celebrate the unique vibrations that architecture create. The project brings to life the sonic heritage of structures, revealing the secrets they hold within their walls and foundations. These vibrations unveil stories of materials, craftsmanship, and the passage of time, offering a new lens through which to appreciate architecture.
Au-delà, Music for an art performance.
Music for "Au-delà", an art performance by Émilie Girault at Pal Project Paris.
This performance can be interpreted in many ways, but to me it feels like a passage into the fragile territory of childhood and memory. There is something deeply nostalgic in it, not simply as a recollection of the past, but as the sensation of reaching toward something that has already slipped away. It evokes innocence, wonder, and the quiet melancholy that comes from sensing how distant those states have become.
The Red Dot Project (Ongoing)
Each piece begins with an empty A4 surface and a simple action: the placement of a single ink dot. The gesture repeats thousands of times until the page becomes saturated with marks. What begins as a minimal act gradually transforms into a field of density, a surface where accumulation replaces drawing and time becomes visible.
Patterns
This is an ongoing drawing project made in a Moleskine notebook, one page at a time. Each pattern is built by hand through repetition, pressure, rhythm, and small variations that appear over time. What begins as a simple grid slowly becomes texture, density, and atmosphere. The goal is to fill the entire book, turning the notebook into a record of patience, focus, and accumulation. Each page stands on its own as a drawing, while also belonging to a larger body of work that grows pattern by pattern.
Digital Collages / Photo Manipulation
(2009-2016)-Archive
Between 2009 and 2016, I developed a series of photographic manipulations and digital collages that explored themes of transformation and urban memory. During this period, my work focused on two recurring subjects: the mutation of the human body and the fragmented landscape of Beirut.
Through layered imagery and digital alteration, I created figures that appeared altered, hybrid, or in a state of transition. These works explored identity, vulnerability, and the tension between the organic and the artificial. In parallel, Beirut became a central visual field in my collages. The city’s architecture, infrastructure, and urban textures were recomposed into dense and sometimes surreal compositions that reflected its complex history and shifting identity.
This body of work formed an early foundation for my broader artistic practice, introducing themes of memory, transformation, and the relationship between human presence and the built environment.
