Pamela and Michele Chrabieh, Kulturnest is a vibrant cultural space and creative hub that nurtures local talent and fosters artistic expression. We bring together artists and enthusiasts through dynamic exhibitions, workshops, and events, creating a vibrant community dedicated to creativity and collaboration. Discover unique art, handcrafted items, and inspiring stories from diverse artistic lands

capes. Restoring a family house from the early 20th century, the two sisters brought life to a neighbourhood lacking versatile arts and culture venues. Dr. Pamela Chrabieh, a multi-talented artist, researcher, and curator, infuses the space with her artistic and academic acumen. Dr. Michele Chrabieh, a Human Resources expert with a passion for craft spirits, brings organisational finesse and hospitality prowess. Since its establishment, Kulturnest has evolved into a semi-nomadic hybrid platform rooted in our restored house yet free to drift beyond it through our eShop, virtual exhibitions, pop-ups, and collaborative projects. We remain a physical nest for local gatherings while carrying our stories and artists into wider, borderless spaces.

Join us on Thursday, June 18, from 6 to 9 PM at Kulturnest for the opening of Havens, a hybrid collective art exhibition bringing together the works of 18 artists from Lebanon and abroad.

Curated by Dr. Pamela Chrabieh, the exhibition explores the fragile shelters we build, remember, imagine, and carry within us in times of war - through artworks that speak of tenderness, rupture, care, continuity, and the need to remain human.

Featured artists: Afaf Merheb, Crystel Samia, Faten Hamdan, Helen Serhan, Jana Hakim, Joseph Ghobeira, Katia Aoun Hage, Leslie Akl, Lucy Poshoghlian / Ardziv, Mundi Ruptor, Nicole Yazbeck Moussalli, Omar Sabbagh, Rania Issam Hamady, Rima Ghanem, Rita Francis, Roula Freiha Bahsali, Tala Beydoun, and Wael Daaboul.

The exhibition will take place physically at Kulturnest in Sin-el-Fil (Lebanon) until August 14, and virtually in the metaverse until July 25. Visits are open on Wednesdays and Fridays from 3 to 6 PM, Thursdays from 11 AM to 2 PM throughout June, July, and August; and Saturdays from 11 AM to 2 PM during June only.

Havens will also be part of Beirut Art Days 2026, organised by L’Agenda Culturel from June 24 to 27 under the theme “Art Is Our Capital.”

Welcome, Luna Mohamad Abdo, to the Kulturnest community! Luna is a self-taught photographer based in Lebanon whose work explores quiet urban spaces, emotional atmosphere, memory, distance, and the subtle tension between solitude and presence.

Her visual language unfolds through observational photography, natural light, simple framing, and cinematic stillness. Her work captures everyday moments that feel suspended in time, where the sea, the city, architecture, fog, movement, and human presence become quiet reflections of inner states.

Rooted in Lebanon’s contrasts, Luna’s photographs invite us to slow down and notice the calmer, more intimate side of places. Through silence, light, and emotional subtlety, she transforms ordinary scenes into contemplative visual fragments where memory, stillness, and presence quietly meet.

Welcome, Badera Khodja, to the Kulturnest community! Badera is a passionate artist with a background in Fine Arts and over 20 years of experience painting on porcelain and glass.

Her artistic practice spans elegant tableware, decorative pieces, glass candle holders, and handpainted objects that transform everyday forms into intimate works of art. Through delicate linework, bold colour contrasts, stylised figures, architectural scenes, butterflies, spirals, and expressive compositions, her visual language brings together craftsmanship, storytelling, and decorative beauty.

At Kulturnest, we are displaying a collection of Badera’s hand-painted ashtrays, where each piece becomes more than a functional object: a small canvas shaped by gesture, detail, and imagination. From quiet embraces and feminine silhouettes to Beirut's urban fragments and theatrical scenes, her work invites us to look at domestic objects as spaces of memory, character, and personal expression.

Having participated in regional exhibitions, including Bahrain, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE, Badera continues to refine her craft through technical mastery, experimentation, and artistic evolution.

Welcome, Antoine Y. Saliba, to the Kulturnest community! Antoine is a Lebanese architect and multidisciplinary artist whose work explores memory, urban complexity, emotional transformation, and the tension between structure and fragmentation.

His visual language unfolds through layered compositions that bring together painting, drawing, photography, architecture, and experimental digital processes. His work moves between order and chaos, intimacy and isolation, reality and abstraction, reflecting the psychological and emotional weight of lived experience.

Rooted in Beirut’s density, instability, contradictions, and resilience, Antoine’s artworks invite us into textured visual worlds where cities become emotional landscapes, bodies become vessels of memory, and fragments come together in shifting states of perception and belonging.

Welcome, Patricia Vivian, to the Kulturnest community! Patricia is a British-Lebanese-Canadian artist and clinical psychologist whose work explores collage as a space of memory, symbolism, transformation, and inner reconstruction.

Her visual language unfolds through layered mixed media compositions, archival images, written and drawn symbols, pop culture references, graffiti-like marks, ornamental fragments, and dreamlike visual tensions. Her work moves between beauty and rupture, conscious imagery and unconscious chaos, order and emotional instability.

Rooted in her experience between Lebanon, Montreal, and Beirut, and shaped by her psychoanalytical reading of dreams, Patricia’s collages invite us to look beneath the surface, where colour, fragments, memory, desire, and conflict come together in complex visual worlds.

Join us on Thursday, May 28, from 5:00 to 8:00 PM at Kulturnest, for the Spring 2026 showcase of our Garden Artist Residency.

Since February, Claude Nakhle, Datevig Berberian, Nora Lebbos, and Rola Souheil have inhabited the garden as a place of creativity, exchange, experimentation, and shared presence. Over three months, their practices unfolded in the open, through paintings, drawings, objects, functional pieces, conversations, and moments of making.

This is not a white-cube exhibition moved outdoors. It is a garden remembering what happened inside it: the hours spent drawing, painting, building, listening, pausing, starting again.

For one evening, our space opens like a living notebook, filled with sketches, textures, colours, interruptions, and the quiet evidence of four artists thinking with their hands.

Visitors are invited to discover the works created during the residency, witness the live completion of a collective mural, and meet the artists behind the process.

Kulturnest, Sin-el-Fil, Saloumeh Roundabout.

Welcome, Zen “Zeez” Shweiry, to the Kulturnest community! Born in Sierra Leone to Lebanese parents, Zeez is a visual artist whose work moves between figurative and abstract expression through acrylics, pastel, ink, drawing, painting, and digital illustration.

His visual language unfolds through layered compositions, bold colours, fragmented spaces, urban and rural traces, symbolic forms, and shifting perspectives. His work explores questions of belonging, memory, displacement, Lebanese cultural identity, and the inner distortions shaped by trauma and return.

Rooted in experiences of migration, nostalgia, and reconnection with Lebanon, Zeez’s artworks invite us into vivid emotional maps where chaos, heritage, imagination, and personal history meet.
