Them by Rima Salamoun

Mark Hachem Gallery is pleased to hosting of visionary Syrian artist, Rima Salamoun  solo exhibition , titled ” Them”.

Salamoun describes herself as a dedicated observer of human evolution and the ever-shifting tides of change. Fueled by her profound fascination with the human experience and her passion for drawing and painting, she has cemented herself in the art world as an unparalleled storyteller.

In her work, Salamoun delves into the lives of women ; She places great importance on representing the human condition, and all the paradoxes within it. She views herself, and indeed all artists, as witnesses of life. Her work is like a diary; she imbues each brushstroke with intention, depicting the world and people she perceives, narrating her experiences through art.

Through this process, her works embody the contemplation, inquiry, and uncertainty that are everpresent in the human mind, and begin a conversation between the past self and the present self, a primary text in time. Moreover, Salamoun’s oeuvre navigates dichotomy and paradox, engaging in a dance of life’s dualities: love and hatred, past and future, shadow and light.
