The Artist
Baseem Rayyes
Born in Syria in 1970, Rayyes has spent over fifty years painting the tension between what we show the world and what we hold inside. His figures carry weight without explanation. Dense, layered compositions built from decades of memory, exile, and quiet observation.
Based in Dubai since 2005, his works are held in private collections across the Gulf, Europe, and the United States, and have been exhibited from DIFC to Norway.
