Ghada Zoghbi is a Lebanese artist, born in Shmestar in 1980. At 18,she moved to Beirut to enroll in art teachers’ college, and in 2010,she earned a degree in Fine Art from the Lebanese University.
Her first solo show, “Regimes of the Personal”, took place in 2016, at Artspace Hamra Gallery, Beirut where she presented 13 oil paintings, each telling the personal story of a random person in her local community, through images of their closets, launching her questioning of the relation between personal and common.
In her second solo exhibition “Pretty Abandoned” Zoghbi carried on with her work on this connection between human beings and their surrounding spaces, and continued to exhibit her work in several collective exhibitions and art fairs in Lebanon and abroad, such as Jordan, Qatar, Egypt, Algeria, UAE, and France.
Zoghbi insists on having no political or religious affiliations and refuses to adhere to borders drawn and created by power. As an art teacher for the past 21 years, she has worked to enrich young children’s educational experience through art, including inner-city kids and refugee students in Lebanon.
