Monuments of gesture

Private Collections
There is a quiet intensity to the time Lana Khayat spends in her studio. It is a space of stillness and focus, where gestures are guided by rhythm, intuition, and light. Her works on paper, though fragile in material, carry a monumental presence. They are expansive fields shaped by breath, memory, and movement.
These large-scale pieces hold the delicacy of touch and the strength of scale. Each mark becomes a trace of something both deeply felt and carefully composed. The paper carries thread, pigment, and silence, absorbing every gesture with honesty.
These are not sketches or studies. They are full conversations. Vast yet intimate. Soft yet commanding. They ask the viewer to come closer, to listen, and to stay.
Nature on paper becomes something both immediate and eternal. Each mark captures a fleeting rhythm, the curve of a petal, the trace of wind, the memory of light. In Lana Khayat’s hands, paper becomes a field where the natural world is not only observed but felt, held, and translated into silence.
For commissions, collaborations, or collector inquiries, I'm always open to meaningful exchange.
