Three art works commissioned by Sharq.Org and inspired by the collection ‘Syrian Histories’ graced the walls of Beit Beirut during an exhibition in 2019 to mark the launch of ‘Tarikhi: The Journal of Arab World Voices’.
Artists: Madonna Adib, Ghenwa Abou Fayad, mirella salame
The artworks were as diverse in nature and style as the stories that inspired them and were commissioned in a bid to highlight to artists the inspirational quality of stories and personal narratives. Sharq.Org published all the stories it documents under a Creative Commons license that enables and encourages artists, cultural actors, journalists, researchers and the like to borrow from and be inspired by the stories.
