Ali Cha’aban

We sat down with Lebanese artist and observer of culture, Ali Cha’aban, to speak on his archival concept behind the “I’m Not Here” piece at the OUTLOUD exhibit Last February.

This collaboration with the oldest and most renowned manufacturer of luxury handmade carpets and rugs in Egypt, @kahhal1871, and @alichaaban, transformed the traditional craft of carpet making into a piece on preservation of culture at the art event of the season: ‘OUTLOUD’.
