Nayla Kai Saroufim is a Lebanese artist based in Los Angeles and Beirut. She earned a degree in Illustration and Art Direction from the Académie Libanaise des Beaux-Arts. She had worked in the publicity field at several multinational advertising agencies, when she began to connect with her passion for art again. Since then, she has been working as a full time artist for over two decades, using art as a form of expression. Fluid and diverse, Nayla Kai Saroufim’s three-dimensional artworks merge abstraction and surrealism in a rich fusion of pop art inspirations. Saroufim’s artworks vary in abstract to realistic elements, often inspired by pop art, abstract expressionism, street art, and cartoon. Creative, a dreamer, and a lover of color and beauty, the artist’s personality is clearly portrayed in her sculptures. A decade into her career as an artist, Saroufim’s work embodies her attraction to colors and interest in all forms of expression, especially installations. Her technique is unique and personalized: a fusion of mixed media and installations in layers of steel, copper, wood, and other elements. In 2013, she started working predominantly in metal, creating installations with steel, copper, and other materials like resin. While they are industrial and cold in nature, Saroufim uses and transforms them into warm and organic poetry of humanity. Her works are uplifting and joyful, leaving the audience in a positive atmosphere. They come in many different forms such as small sculptures, large installations, and even benches. The works come into the audience’s spaces, and bring happiness, colour, and brightness into them. Saroufim’s works have been showcased globally, and are currently on display in prominent cities such as Los Angeles, New York, Seoul, London, Paris, Madrid, Doha, and Dubai.
