Oil on Linen

Lana Khayat’s choice of oil on linen is both deliberate and intuitive, a dialogue between material and memory. The raw weave of linen offers a natural, tactile surface that breathes with the paint, absorbing each layer like soil holding rain. Oil allows for depth and softness, a slow unfolding of color that mirrors the organic rhythms in her work.

Strokes are layered, not rushed, each one a quiet gesture, a trace of time. The result is a surface that feels alive, where pigment and fiber become inseparable, and where nature, emotion, and memory are held in suspended harmony.
