ARTSPACE Dubai is showcasing an innovative selection of works by Lebanese artist, Hala Nadar. Having taken time off to raise her sons, Hala Nadar will be debuting works from 2005 - 2013, in her preferred medium of oil on canvas, which features a new subject: the 'tree of life' and 'landscapes'. These new works illustrate an increased growth and maturity not only in the compositions themselves but also in the application of the brush strokes and in the developed and vastly multiplied detail. Pattern continues to feature strongly in these paintings, be it in the fruit-laden trees or their leaves, which always bring to mind the common link in Nadar's body of work; her printed textile background.
