AD Middle East published Rawaa Talass's studio interview with Chafa Ghaddar on 25 February 2025, as the Lebanese artist's solo Your Sun That Kept Setting opened at Maraya Art Centre in Sharjah.
Talass writes from Ghaddar's studio in Dubai, where a quiet, cocooned room is described as a place in which the artist can work between teaching, motherhood and other commitments. The conversation turns on fresco, the vulnerability of walls, and abstracted landscapes and fields of colour. The exhibition discussed is at Maraya, not at Tabari. The gallery appears only as the Instagram handle at the end of the piece.
Your Sun That Kept Setting ran at Maraya Art Centre from 2 November 2024 to 10 January 2025. Ghaddar has also shown Beneath Latent Skies at Tabari.
Ghaddar describes the studio as a safe place and, at the same time, a room in which she can be exact about walls, plaster and colour. Talass links that quiet to the frescoes themselves, with their abstracted landscapes and fields of colour.
Tabari represents Chafa Ghaddar.
