Jad El Khoury
1988
Jad El Khoury (b.1988, Lebanon) belongs to a generation of artists born during the Lebanese Civil War. His background in architecture and graffiti made him interested in occupying contemporary ruins and abandoned buildings holders of bitter memories. Rather than hiding the city’s scars, El Khoury works to embellish them, to give them new life.
