Ryan Eid is a self-taught Lebanese artist.
Eid’s artistic evolution has been extensive and, although just 21, the journey to find his style has seen a healthy degree of diversity and experimentation. One thing that has remained ever- present in his work is the longing to hold onto the freewheeling spirit of childhood.
The artist’s work also reflects the darker aspects of the child’s rich imagination, here depicted as sculptures of monsters made from industrial metals, but spray-painted in his distinctive bright colors, symbolizing that even the anxieties and fears of childhood are beholden to its all- encompassing innocence and love.
