ART from the Edge - Uncivilized 91cm x 46cm - oil paint, fabric and yarn on canvas - April 2023 March is recognized as women’s history month in many countries in the world. Although dedicated months are usually assigned to highlight minority populations, the gender gap reduces women to the same status. In the art business, gender inequality is even more pronounced than in other industries. In the first painting of the ART from the edge series, I bring attention to the marginalization of women in the art space- in this case pushed to the side of the canvas. The title refers to a new low in representation that also happened this month, where people from the Middle East were indirectly referred to as “uncivilized” in one of the blatantly racist displays of white exceptionalism that spread across the Western media since the beginning of the war in Ukraine. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e919c62cf86705349ef7f0/2e0ae098-2124-4add-8387-9a88621b7d9e/Ghia+Haddad+-+Marginalized.jpg Portfolio - ART from the Edge - Marginalized 56cm x 76cm - Oil Paint, Fabric and Yarn- March 2022 I painted this on the occasion of Women’s Day 2022, as I am grateful for all the women who keep speaking their truth- even from the edge of the frame. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e919c62cf86705349ef7f0/7165f00c-81b7-4d86-bccc-bffec26097f0/Sidelined+transp.png Portfolio - ART from the Edge - Sidelined 90cmx60cm- oil paint, fabric and yarn on canvas - March 2022 A 2019 study entitled « Diversity of artists in major U.S. museums» conducted by Williams College found that 85.4% of artwork in museum collections in the US features white artists, and 87.4% is made by men. Asian artists’ work accounts to 9%, Hispanic and Latino artists’ to 2.8%, and African American artists’ to 1.2%. Of the meager 14.6% art by women in these collections, only 3.3% is work produced by black women artists. Instead, the presence of black women in Western art has been relegated to images of slaves, servants, or exotic novelties inside paintings that have normalized these roles in western visual culture for too many years. The fact that minority artists were sidelined for years somehow still justifies calling their art «new», «exotic» or «primitive» and categorizing it within the context of the western canon. Until the art world truly accepts that art by minority artists is part of long histories of self identification through rich ethnic traditions that are completely independent from western art, these inclusions will remain fads devoid of any sincere aim to truly value them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e919c62cf86705349ef7f0/feaea067-e5b8-4784-8ea7-38e698d3c845/Life+Half+Lived+by+Ghia+Haddad.jpeg Portfolio - ART from the Edge - Life Half Lived 76cmx38cm- oil paint, fabric and yarn on canvas - October 2024 With so many innocent lives lost in unimaginable violence against civilians this year, and so much death and destruction, hopeful art for me became impossible. Putting Hopeful messages out there seemed insensitive, useless, privileged. With so many young lives cut short and ruined, with so many bodies injured and mutilated, with so many families heartbroken and livelihoods destroyed, creating art about hope felt downright wrong. But these Lives Half Lived need to be honored. They have to be recognized and remembered. And from the spark which used to shine in their eyes we must continue to light our own way forward. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e919c62cf86705349ef7f0/3886301b-32a2-4479-8a57-c375d587e17d/IMG_1131.jpeg Portfolio - ART from the Edge - Immortal 90cmx60cm- oil paint, acrylic paint, fabric and yarn on canvas - April 2022 Out of all the “isms”, ageism definitely does not get enough attention. While it also works to discredit young people for being too inexperienced, too impulsive, too naive etc, ageism mostly renders the older population invisible. A 2019 study by the AARP showed that only 15% of images in the American media show people over 50. Additionally, there is an entire industry that functions on feeding the consumers’ belief that aging is something to avoid at all costs- further alienating and marginalizing the elderly. In a cancel culture world that is increasingly intolerant to offensive language and prejudiced practices, our youth obsessed societies seem oblivious to blatant ageism in everyday representations, language and normalized behaviors. While women in art are already at a disadvantage with respect to visibility, older women artists have the extra marginalization factor that comes with their age. I chose in my fourth painting in the series “Art From The Edge” to portray an artist who unapologetically breaks this mold. Etel Adnan -Lebanese-born writer and artist that the art and literary world lost at age 96 last year - only got widespread recognition for her art at age 87. Her unassuming approach to life and art is marked by a philosophy that is at the same time light and profound. In her artwork, she pays tribute to earth and life with a joy that manifests itself in playful abstractions of color that celebrate nature. The weaving and the background shapes are an homage to her beautiful work, as is the vibrant red square you can find in many of her pieces. https://www.ghiahaddad.com/ghia-work/i-dream-in-color monthly 0.5 2022-08-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e919c62cf86705349ef7f0/035d1f86-59d2-45e7-ae81-85ef3e5ad4b0/The+Color+of+My+Dreams.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e919c62cf86705349ef7f0/76c05da0-7b64-4628-9a03-d4b4d07d7aed/I+Dream+of+The+Day+3.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e919c62cf86705349ef7f0/5083f60d-520e-480d-b93e-8d35532ef163/Ghia+Haddad-+Coral+Dreams-+Acrylic+Paint%2C+Beads+and+Fabric+on+canvas-+122cmx61cm.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e919c62cf86705349ef7f0/37cf26a1-b389-439a-b720-2bc90eb526d1/Scarlet+Dreams+1.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e919c62cf86705349ef7f0/a5d2c848-32ea-4b67-9063-132e2238c32d/Emerald+Dreams+-Acrylic+Paint%2C+Beads+and+Fabric+on+canvas-+122cmx61cm.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e919c62cf86705349ef7f0/01bff4d1-bb01-4f3e-a8ac-756beaffce1b/Ghia+Haddad++Olive+Dreams.jpg https://www.ghiahaddad.com/ghia-work/other-artwork monthly 0.5 2023-04-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e919c62cf86705349ef7f0/ee1f05a9-e932-4e58-8328-a6f214f29bf2/1-+Ghia+Haddad-Headache-Acrylic+and+Oil+Paints-40cmx40cm.jpg Portfolio -

Wrapped People have been wrapping their dead in fabric for centuries. Across beliefs and cultures, burial shrouds stem from a human need to purify, to protect, to contain what we are surrendering to the great unknown. And while the living cloak themselves in fabric for warmth, for safety, for cover, and for solace, they use the soft swaddle of cloth to comfort them through grief when they are parting with loved ones. This painting is the first of a series about life and death. About hope and fear; about wrapped women - literally shrouded in layers of fabric, and figuratively wrapped inside the layers of their own existence. https://www.ghiahaddad.com/ghia-work/knitting monthly 0.5 2025-08-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e919c62cf86705349ef7f0/8ca0983d-27d7-4406-bf60-646d7050c7b3/The+Long+Night+Ghia+Haddad.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e919c62cf86705349ef7f0/8ca0983d-27d7-4406-bf60-646d7050c7b3/The+Long+Night+Ghia+Haddad.jpeg Portfolio - Knitting https://www.ghiahaddad.com/ghia-work/the-pay-off-kb2ng monthly 0.5 2022-01-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e919c62cf86705349ef7f0/6da97f92-3051-45e9-9d99-28da406faa39/Calligraphy+-+Al+Amal.jpg Portfolio - Word Art Al Amal (hope) Hope is a recurring theme in my art and in my life.
