Sa’ad Choeb is a visual artist whose work in painting and drawing explores how rupture in story sequence can affect the experience of seeing. His artistic practice focuses on the complex interplay between structures of codes, languages, and diagrams, examining how these elements can alter perception.
Choeb’s work delves into the potential of an image to generate its own references as a cohesive whole while maintaining the integrity of its individual parts. Through movement and rotational reworkings, he investigates how objects can transform and become new iterations of themselves, continually evolving within their visual contexts. Choeb studied Politics and Philosophy at the American University of Beirut, Lebanon, and later pursued a degree in painting at the Royal College of Art, London. He has participated in residencies at the Modern and Contemporary Art Museum and Ashkal Alwan in Lebanon, as well as the Royal Drawing School in London. Among his accolades, Choeb was the recipient of the Don Bachardy Fellowship in 2022 and served as a Chevening Scholar at the Royal College of Art in 2023. His most recent exhibition was held at Space Studios in London in 2023.
