Bubble Beirut

I was born in Barcelona in 1982. I studied photography for four years between Barcelona and NYC. Since 2004 I've promoted Ruido Photo collective, Ruido School, and CFD Barcelona. My work has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions, and it has been published in national and international media.

Lebanese society has lived for years in constant instability. The wars it has suffered, and the ones in neighboring countries, generate a love-hate relationship between the citizens and their own corruption-driven country. The elites take shelter in luxury and in some idea of the glorious past of the Great Lebanon in order to avoid assuming the delicate present and disturbing future of the country. The project, started in 2011, is a personal approach to this social class with the aim to understand the complexity of the bubble in which they have settled.
