ANDREA NASSAR

Born and raised in Australia, Andrea Nassar moved to Beirut to pursue a degree in Graphic Design from the American University of Beirut. After over 15 years of working in corporate and print design, she returned to her passion of creating objects.

Training under Australian ceramicist Neville Salha, ignited her interest in ceramics, which led her to further explore the craft in Sydney and Thessaloniki Greece, before returning to Lebanon, where she opened her studio practice in 2018. Her work is a reflection of a life lived between two contrasting cultures on opposite ends of the globe, represented through a dialogue between the wide open spaces of Australia and the dense layering of natural and urban landscapes in Lebanon. 

Andrea’s work has been exhibited in Beirut, London, and Milan.
