Having lived in different countries, experienced different line of work, Cynthia Nouhra is a wanderer in the realm of reality in quest of its essence. Her professional journey starts by collecting, as always being an eternal student, several diplomas different in form but complementary in its essence for the beauty of her quest.
At first, she studied the outline and use of space ( BA in interior design, Washington DC), then the different representations that fills the space ( MA in art history, London), to then narrow that space to a single point, reaching the essence ( BA in science of religions, Beirut), to finally ask herself existentialist question such as:” why is there a point instead of nothing” ( BA in philosophy, Beirut). Having done so, she articulated that knowledge by tracing an eclectic professional path by starting taking some interior design projects in Abu Dhabi, to then opening an antique shop in Dubai, teaching religions at the college protestant francais in Beirut, to later opening an art gallery in Beirut, and finally it is until recently she has oriented her interest and field of application in aligning body mind and soul in her artistic journey.
Her Journey as a self taught painter started from an early age, with the mission of wanting to transmit the light thru her art work to everyone willing to dance with it. The use of abstract art with all the dynamism of its colors are important since her art communicates with the emotions and not necessary to the intellect. The lines that esquisse the form are faded away in her art , giving place to a dialogue between the light and its manifestation. We could sum up her work with the emphasis of light, how it merges, how it emanates, and how it is contrasted, etc. Ways and means to express what has to be expressed, and her, being the catalyst of that transmission. The target being transmitting the light.
