Portfolio
Nine polished steel sentinels occupy Moscow's financial district, transforming space through visual and acoustic reflection. As visitors approach, their voices are captured by the metal surfaces and redirected back—sound becomes material, perception becomes sculptural.
Carved from a single block of white marble, Fusion explores the threshold between separation and unity — two forms that were always one, momentarily apart.
A vertical exploration of growth and transformation. Gold leaf accents catch light at different times of day, creating a living, changing artwork.
A permanent gift to the French Embassy in Beirut, this marble work speaks the shared language of two cultures — carved at the intersection of East and West.
In white marble, a study of form and presence. The sculpture holds light, shadow, and silence—a meditation on creation itself.
The Artist
At 24, Chaya set out with a backpack and an appetite for adventure — four continents, nine years of travel, and a relentless pursuit of form. With a Master's in Product Design from École des Mines de Nancy and an MBA in International Commerce of Art from ICart Paris, he brings both rigour and poetry to the sculptural act.
His practice speaks across geographies: from the mountains of Lebanon to the open steppes of Russia, from the desert pavilions of the UAE to the quiet streets of Montréal, each work is a negotiation between material and memory.
"Sculpture is the art of the intelligence.
Form is the soul made visible."
— Chaya Art
Method
Every sculpture begins as a question — a negotiation between place, people, and material. Research, dialogue, and immersive exploration define the brief.
Small-scale models and digital form studies allow the work to evolve fluidly before committing to final material — a dialogue between hand and algorithm.
Whether cast in bronze, carved in marble, or welded in steel — fabrication is where intention meets resistance, and the work discovers what it wants to be.
Site, light, and viewer complete the work. Chaya supervises every installation, ensuring the sculpture's relationship to space is precisely as intended.
