We’ve lived at least 10 lives in the past 2 months.
But what keeps me sane is still finding Lebanon the way I know it exists. The Beirut I love. My people. My tribe.
Life doesn’t wait. We’re exhausted but no one will ever understand what it is to be Lebanese and to still love life even under the drones. ♥️

LEBANON FUNDRAISER POP UP LONDON: we’re doing a little pop up fundraiser in london together with @raphaellemacaron next saturday. all sales / proceeds from this pop up will be donated in equal parts to @beit.aam and @tanseqeye_shaabeye_lebanon , we will cover all print and manufacturing costs out of our pocket. we will have our full discography available on vinyl, raphaelle will have a selection of big fine art giclée prints as well as smaller risograph prints. we will also have 2 exclusive limited edition releases on 7“ vinyl lathe cuts in a run of 15 numbered copies each, 10 of which will have handmade covers by raphaelle. 7“ number one is by the wonderful duo @kazdouramusic and will include their current single „and then?“ with the previously unreleased instrumental on the b-side, the other single is by a band called „andromeda“ and was recorded in the early 1980s in beirut.. It was only circulated in a run of maybe 10 cassettes at the time. these 2 releases will only be available at the event and they are limited to 1 per person. we’ll also be playing some lebanese records, so also happily come through if you just want to get a tea or coffee.
shoutout to @kotn for hosting us at their London store and helping with production, also many thanks to @tuneforkstudios for their logistics help. poster design by raphaelle macaron.
C’est le procès le plus incroyable du moment.
Pendant sept ans, de 2013 à 2020, de vrais faux agents des services secrets en mission « undercover » ont intimidé, tabassé et sont allés jusqu’à tuer des cibles « pour la France ».
Sans savoir qu’ils évoluaient dans une fiction, et qu’ils n’étaient en réalité que les jouets d’une officine de tueurs à gages dirigée par deux associés s’étant rencontrés dans la même loge maçonnique.
Fou ? Et pourtant. Voici l’affaire des « barbouzes de la DGSE » (ou « affaire Athanor »), dont les acteurs sont tous présumés innocents et qui est jugée à Paris depuis le 31 mars.
Retrouvez notre grand récit sur cette histoire improbable sur society.fr (lien en bio) et dans le numéro 277 de Society, toujours disponible sur boutique.so

Il y a quelques mois j'ai montré pr la première fois un ensemble de pièces appelé offeringstotheunknown.
Ce sont des pièces murales. Émaillées pour certaines. Elles ont vocation à contenir des écrits. Pour cette installation les écrits étaient des poèmes de Léa cuenin, Dourane fall, Joseph matik, Sharlen nozawa, Sara rastegar et Brian rogers envers qui je suis profondément reconnaissante pour avoir répondu à mon invitation.
Je me suis octroyé le privilège d'en lire des extraits lors d'un petit événement.
J'étais accompagné de Brian rogers à la guitare et Dourane fall nous a fait l'honneur de délivrer le sien elle même 🌷
Thank you to all the artist and brands who responded to our call, to every person who gave a workshop, to @brazzaville961 for the space, and to everyone who showed up and contributed. 🙏
We were able to collect 1161$.
The online fundraiser will still be open this and it’s already at 2150€. Once closed we will combine all the funds and distribute them to @humansofdahieh@mayanoise@root.and.rise.lebanon@studio_beirut_soup_kitchen

When the world feels uncertain, art frequently serves as a silent language for expressing optimism, unity, and perseverance.
Across the Middle East, artists are increasingly using artistic expression not only for personal contemplation, but also as a collective gesture, one that transcends borders, politics, and headlines.
In this setting, modern Middle Eastern artists are developing a visual language that expresses not just hardship, but also perseverance and caring.
KHAMSA has put together a list of all the artists who’s works speak directly to our hearts. Swipe and visit Khamsa.com for more.
