Read MoreDanielle Karam was born and raised in Lebanon, a country torn by conflict and corruption. She studied law, considering it was a way to defend ideals she believed in and topics she was interested in, such as justice, freedom and the environment. As her career path failed to fulfill her aspirations and to extinguish her frustrations about events and behaviors surrounding her, she started looking for alternative ways to articulate her feelings and thoughts, digging through her true identity and love for art, music, reading and writing. She took more interest in artistic expression, such as photography and writing, which she found more compatible with her personality and a powerful way of resistance and protest. She also got more and more acquainted with the art scene and was particularly fascinated by street art and the social and political messages that the artists look to convey through their work. Since 2019 she has been mostly photographing street art works, artistic expressions related to the Lebanese revolution, and broken billboards. Her articles and pictures have been published in Lebanese and international journals and websites, such as Nuart Journal. She is also currently working on a photographic installation relating to the Beirut port blast.
