“My craft is a symbiotic relationship between thinking and feeling.”
1. BIOGRAPHY
Anas Albraehe attained a Bachelor’s degree in Painting and Drawing from the University of Fine Arts in Damascus, Syria, in 2014. Following the outbreak of the Syrian war, he relocated to Lebanon, where he pursued further studies, earning a Master’s degree in Psychology and Art Therapy from the Lebanese University in 2015.
Growing up in Suwayda’s remote countryside, Anas found inspiration in the vibrant and rich details of his surroundings. His art vividly showcases the intricate nuances of human psychology, with a particular emphasis on the influence of colors. Heavily influenced by French artists such as Jean-Francois Millet, Jules Breton, Henri Matisse and Gauguin Albraehe blends intricate compositions and a vibrant color palette to bring vivid portrayals. Anas acknowledges that his color choices, are instinctive and instrumental in separating his works from reality, creating a harmonious and imaginative interplay of shades that echo the beauty of his environment.

“By studying the painting's compositions, its colors, and its emotional connections, I am treading that line between the mind and the unconscious.”
“When we're awake there's a state of running and restlessness toward the future. But when we get home, there is this state of surrendering the body to the mattress, if you will. It is a surrender to a place we don’t know … I began seeing humans at their truest and rawest when they were sleeping”
