About this artwork
“Peaceful Island” by Etab Hreib speaks of refuge more than geography. The clustered homes rise from the water like memories resurfacing each dome, each hue a fragment of a life once lived. The sea holds them gently, as if time itself decided to pause. It is not peace born of stillness, but of acceptance the calm that follows turmoil, when everything has been felt and finally released. Within the glow of terracotta and the coolness of blue, Hreib paints what it means to return to oneself.

About the Artist
Etab Hreib’s life has been one of motion, resistance and luminous creation. From the shifting houses of her Syrian childhood, moving from Aleppo to Tartus and finally settling in Damascus, she learned early that home is more than bricks: it is a memory, a colour, a departure.
Her style is expressive-abstract watercolor narrative, that swirl with green vigour, sky-blue liberations, streaks of red rebellion, and deep black grief. Yet the overall palette remains rich, optimistic, full of possibility rather than surrender. She creates simple motifs, a house on a hillside, a tree leaning toward the wind, a window open to dusk, but imbues them with emotional depth and personal geography.
