OMAR MISMAR

BORN 1986, Bekaa Valley, Lebanon
LIVES&WORKS Beirut, Lebanon

Mosaics, photographs and video installations speak to us about the aesthetics present in a conflict situation. This Lebanese artist uses a deliberately poetic approach to bring art and politics together and make the performative act tangible evidence of disaster. Conceptual art, critical studies and design are essential components of his efforts to identify a lexicon to allow his work to hover between the gestural, the aesthetic and the political.
