Lebanese roots. A life in Sweden. Paintings that travel.
I’m Samah El Hage, a Lebanese-Swedish artist exploring identity, emotion and connection through bold colour and fragmented human forms. My work has been exhibited across Europe and the United States, from gallery spaces to the monumental billboards of Times Square.

The face and figure are not literal portraits, but vessels for colour, rhythm and structure. Each painting begins with an intuitive response to emotion, memory or place. I work between calm and chaos, the seen and the felt, leaving space for you to recognise something of your own.
