Honourable Fears |
by Mireille Astore |
"Honourable Fears is a photographic installation which explores the absences and spaces that are occupied by the forbidden, the unspeakable, and the Other. The installation is a bold attempt at deciphering the social psyche and an invitation to question notions of self-protection as they manifest themselves through the continuum of history." |

Mile End |
by Nadim Karam |
Following the invitation to present my work at the Mile End Park Sculpture Exhibition I proposed for this Art and Ecology Park a hundred and one different miniatures Archaic Procession sculptures: the 101 Forest Sprites; each of the sculptures is of 45cm height, made of steel, and elevated on a gravel mound. In front of each sculpture is a small projector light. The shapes of the Archaic Procession elements appear as a bridge between the infinitely diverse forms of nature and the fantastical world or our imagination. |

"Memory for Forgetfulness" : Registering/Effacing the Memory of the Lebanese War |
by Ashraf Osman |
"In this age of memorials, it is customary to think of architecture as a means of commemoration. Indeed, as a synthetic physical act, architecture has long been a common and prevalent means of giving a commemorative presence to memory. However, by giving physicality to memory, architecture offers simultaneously its means of annihilation, thus becoming an ideal means of achieving its antithesis, oblivion. And just like memory, a finite selective process, architecture inescapably embodies an act of exclusion as well. As such architecture emerges as an ideal vehicle for oblivion as much as it is for memory." |

Territory - Beit el Bourj |
by Amal Saade |
"The HOUSE IN BORJ (Beit El Borj) is situated in the southern outskirts of Beirut in the area of Laylake. Before the war the area was residential and agricultural with extremely fertile land. Its inhabitants were both Christians and Muslims.TERRITORY is a representation of one of the rooms in the house. It has been inspired by an article of the Lebanese newspaper An-Nahar that talks about the stolen fertile soil by Israel on the occupied south of Lebanon." |

'untitled' |
by Jayce Salloum |
'untitled' is an ongoing multi-channel video installation continuing my series of projects addressing social and political realities and representations, manifestations, and enunciations, focusing on borders/nationalisms/ movements (shifts, transitions, and interstitial space/time) and subjectivity and the conditions of living between polarities of culture, geography, history, and ideology. |

Kan ya ma Kan / There was and there was not |
by Jayce Salloum |
'There was and there was not' is a transposition of a working studio and found archive, presenting the 'resources' & artifacts necessary to re-construct an understanding of the mediated process inherent in the definition and perception of a culture. |
