Adi Atassi, was born in Syria , in 1962. The beauty
of the Syrian landscape covered with a mosaic of
colours, strong light and shadows, history and
religions, influenced his first years lived in the
town of Homs. At the age of eighteen, he left for
Damascus to study art at the University of Fine
Arts.
Like the sea gull flying to different lands
building their nests, his fate brought him to Cyprus
, that provided for him his new home since 1987. The
status of the foreigner, gave him the loneliness an
artist needs, but at the same time, the familiarity
of the climate and the history of place, gave him
the love and warmth necessary for his creativity.
