Press Release

From the Sea comes the Ocre,

That tans these Bodies,

From Space comes Fire,

That blows on the Wind,

To move the Wooden Masts,

And the Sail Texture,

And the sensuous Waves,

For the Swimmers Pleasure.

About the Artist

Elie-Philippe Schehade has a very personal approach to representing forms, landscapes, and characters. He tries to forget, as much as possible, any academic form that was instilled in him during his youth. ‘Fortunately,’ he says with a wide smile, ‘It took me a long time to forget all that and to spread my own wings!’ For him, a successful painting must be appreciated ‘By someone else,’ by an absent person, or even an ‘invisible’ one. His paintings are part of numerous collections in Europe, the Americas, as well as on the walls of many private or official enterprises, such as at the State of Qatar’s Palace of Guests, in Doha.
