Raised in lebanon, artist Georges Bassil (b. 1965) is a self taught artist whose career started in Beirut in 1995.

 

Based in Amman, Jordan since 2010, Bassil’s work focuses on the human figures and emotions that he wishes to capture. In a world that grows increasingly fanatical, he recreates what he sees on warm fabrics, engaging the human soul in a dialogue by his at times transparent use of pigment. His figures exist in their own world with- out judgement, lost in thought.
