ADYE, which means in my native language the natural growing up, was my first exhibition that I did in the national museum of Lattakia city in the year 2002.

I wanted that idea to grow up quietly and it was a beautiful dream, which was related to my desire of being honest and lucid in my reaction with the world around me.

I was used to draw passionately without any effort and my desire of painting was intensified by the emotions I used to have towards a girl build my dreams.

From the administrative side I was unsuccessful, but from the artistic one my friends, teacher and the little amount of people, which were there, liked my works, my paint was loveable.

At that period I did not have entered the sanctum of life yet, of which I derive my energy in painting.

that's why my paintings were dreaming and innocent and didn't carry what I now carry from attitudes and impressions which changed my way of thinking , then I found my self trying to communicate with the new phase using new style , which I'm trying to make it modern.

After a few months from the exhibition, I joined the military service and other things changed like my graduation from university and looking for work in addition to the change that happened to my emotional status.

The turnover which happened in my artistic journey since that time wasn't direct , but came in a gradual manner and in many phases ,until I reached that conviction because I started to adapt with my reality step by step and started to get acquainted with the world in a larger way.

In the year 2004 when I was doing my military service, I was so far from who I am really , that's because of the circumstances of  military life

So when I used to paint I was always more into expressive thinking because 

I lost contact with my real nature and freedom of work , and always had a nostalgia to return to that natural life of mine , but I knew in advance that this return will be different definitely.

This feeling induced me to communicate with my intellectual background having a huge nostalgia, and thought of doing an exhibition in Damascus in which I will invite a group of artists with whom I feel like I have good communication to participate in presenting a one vision of SMELL OF THE SOIL, and the artists were:

Haishoun , Yakub Missi, Shadi Nser, Basma Killo, Aram Abdulraheem, Reem Missi, Taima Satik , Fatima Rajab, and me Mudar Salimeh    

By the advancing of work and preparing for that exhibition, I started to see how hard it is to make it be in ideal abstract. In addition, I had a feeling that the whole idea vanished because of the routine and changes of mood that happened with the exhibition salon and the artists, but in the end, I continued the exhibition considering that each artist has a privacy that makes him communicate with the world around him without any prepared molds.Despite the soil in which we are planted is one, but we were a wild forest.

The exhibition in Damascus made me gain good experience so after I finished military service I started to think about a new strategy in work.  

Exhibition salon "THE ARAB CULTURAL CENTRE Abu Rummaneh "

After I participated in many group exhibitions in the year 2005, I started to think about a new way of exhibiting my works.

The streets of Lattakia were a place that made me feel curious, because in general, I do not feel comfortable to the visitor's ideology of salons and I have some restraints about their artistic orientation

That is why I was so into the idea of exhibiting in the street, I chose the nearest alley to the center FINE ART CENTER IN LATTAKIA of from which I graduated, and the nearest friends, who studied art with me in its classes and they, were:

Shaza Haidar , Shadi Nser , Basma kilo , Ahmad bahro , and me mudar salimeh..

The exhibition took place for three days, every day we put the paintings in the morning and then in the evening we take them to some body's house until the next day.

The experience was very exciting not only because of the exhibiting manner, but also because of the people in the street.

In the beginning the people didn't mean to pass by through that street to see the paintings , but they had a real good tact and taste in art and they were interested very much that the whole city was talking about our exhibition at that time.
