Elie Mouhanna
Elie Mouhanna is a trans-disciplinary art and design practitioner and pedagogue based in Jounieh, Lebanon. Mouhanna’s practice is founded on a phenomenology of the image that aims to investigate the ever-shifting, multi-faceted nature of images as mediating devices and instruments of symbolization that influence the various ways in which we situate ourselves in the world and respond to it.
Mouhanna works around writing, drawing, installation art, and performances, operating at the intersection of personal and collective experiences as analogies of one another, often transforming everyday material and objects into conceptually charged bodies of work.
His research revolves around psychoanalytic theory of absence and representation, aesthetics, and linguistic phenomena. He currently works as adjunct assistant professor of practice at the Lebanese American University.
