ARTIST’S PROFILE

Beya Rebai was born in Paris, France in 1995. She studied illustration in Brussels, Belgium, during three years. She proceeded with a master degree in Paris. Fascinated by color, especially by the artistic current of the Nabis, she builds her drawings with a narrow and carefully selected color range. Beya always has a sketchbook during her travels with some wax pastels, she draws what she sees, but in her way, with a lot of colors.

A girl in a caffe, a bouquet of flowers, the grace of a mountain, everything is an excuse to draw. She draws on her memories and her imagination to compose illustrations that tell a story, her story.

Beya worked for The Guardian, The New York Times, Nike, Die Zeit, among others. 

During her residency she would like to work on a series of pastel paintings using the La Moissie and its naturally environment – especially its gardens and surrounding landscapes and fields.
