Rita Karam is a esteemed Lebanese artist from the picturesque Bekaa Valley. Initially trained as a fashion designer, she embarked on a transformative journey in the early '90s, immersing herself in the vibrant artistic landscape of Italy.
For Rita, art transcends mere representation; it serves as a tool to surpass the boundaries of ordinary reality. Unrestrained by conventional norms, she fearlessly delves into diverse mediums and forms of expression, defying traditional constraints with every stroke of her brush.
Residing in the UAE for over two decades, Rita's art bears witness to her profound connection to her homeland, infused with a longing for its captivating landscapes and warm hospitality. Each piece intricately weaves together elements of nostalgia, capturing the essence of her cherished memories and the enduring spirit of her homeland.
