From his formative years amidst the turbulent backdrop of the Lebanese Civil War to his subsequent relocation to Belgium and pursuit of artistic excellence, Mohdad’s journey has been marked by profound experiences that inform his distinctive visual language.- Early Life & Education: Growing up in Aley following the civil war instilled a deep understanding of displacement and resilience within him.

This collaborative endeavor reflects his belief in the power of visual media to foster dialogue and understanding, prioritizing meticulous research and artistic sensitivity.

His images resonate with viewers not merely as representations of places or events but as conduits for experiencing profound human connections and confronting challenging realities.Legacy & Significance
