SARAH BAHBAH
Sarah Bahbah is a Palestinian/Jordanian-Australian Artist
and Director living in Los Angeles. Raised by Immigrant parents,
her culturally conservative upbringing led to a great
rebellion of Art. Over the past decade Sarah has become
renowned for her signature style, giving birth to visually
striking, culture-shifting stories that combine her most intimate
psyche and inner dialogue appearing as subtitles
with cinematic stills. Sarah’s art explores the power of vulnerability
by way of giving voice to the vast spectrum of
chaos and desire in imperfect relationships. She believes in
embracing emotional freedom to break taboos and celebrate
the liberation of guilt and shame. With every story Sarah
releases on Instagram, her cult-like following responds,
leading every series created to go internationally viral.
Through her content creation agency, Possy, she has worked
with the likes of Gucci, Condé Nast, Capitol Records,
Sony Music, and GQ.. In an effort to challenge traditional Art
world norms, she launched a ‘pay what you can’ initiative
making her art more accessible to the public. Since then,
has sold over 10,000 prints. Her art has been exhibited internationally
at 25 art fairs and galleries including Saatchi
Gallery London, Zonamaco Mexico, and Scope Art Basel
before she left to do it on her own. She has self-funded five
international solo exhibitions which saw huge success and
has been featured in countless publications including New
York Times, Forbes, Business Insider, The Cut, Vogue US, Vice
and many more.
