lamia fakhoury

Lamia Fakhoury is a Jordanian self taught sculptor with a hands-on approach to her work; she sees each one of her pieces from its inception through molding, casting, welding, patina work, and everything in between; every sculpture is a unique one-of-a-kind piece. After several successful careers as a documentarian, a coffee roaster,  and a legal arbitrator, Fakhoury made a life changing decision to live life in “playing mode”, dedicating herself to pushing the bounds of her craft-- she is the first sculptor in the region to cast life-sized hollow bronze sculptures. To achieve this feat, Lamia experimented tirelessly, collaborating closely with industrial foundries in Amman and their heavy duty equipment.
