Ilk ya Baalbak
Inspired by his hometown of Baalback, the abstract small-scaled work of Mazen Rifai is characterized by transparency and luminosity while capturing an interpretation of emotions.
Instead of depicting the landscapes or representations of objects and places, Rifai paints sensations and memories associated with his subjects. The ink on paper, “Ilk ya Baalbak” is a classic example of an homage to his ancestral land.
