Sarah Bahbah is a Palestinian/Jordanian Artist and Director born and raised in Australia, now residing in Los Angeles. Raised by Immigrant parents, her culturally conservative upbringing led to a great rebellion of Art. Over the past decade Bahbah has become renowned for her signature style, giving birth to visually striking, culture-shifting stories that combine her most intimate psyche appearing as subtitles placed over cinematic stills. Bahbah’s art explores the power of vulnerability by way of giving voice to the vast spectrum of chaos and desire in imperfect relationships. She believes in embracing emotional vulnerability to break taboos and celebrate the liberation of guilt and shame. With every story Bahbah releases on Instagram, her large audience responds, leading the works she creates to go internationally viral.

Bahbah founded her creative agency Possy in 2016 and has worked with the likes of Gucci, Condé Nast, Capitol Records, Sony Music, and GQ – and was the first Arab to shoot a cover for GQ Middle East. She has directed three music videos for music producer Kygo, collecting over 100 million views. Her art has been exhibited internationally at 25 art fairs and galleries including Saatchi Gallery London, Zonamaco Mexico, and Scope Art Basel, before she left to do it on her own and become an independent artist. Since, she has self-funded five international solo exhibitions which saw huge success, and to challenge traditional Art world norms, she launched a ‘pay what you can’ sliding scale initiative, making her art more accessible to the public. Bahbah has independently sold over 25,000 prints.

In 2020 Bahbah released her most impactful series yet titled “3ieb!” in Arabic / “Shame On Me!” in English; a series where she provocatively posed in front of the camera for the first time, expressing her desire for sexual liberation from her cultural restrictions. The subtitles appeared in both English and Arabic calligraphy which caused an uproar within the MENA community, while simultaenously giving voice to many women who held the same desire. Soon after Bahbah released ‘Fool Me Twice’, a photo series which explores Attachment theory through sharing the most intimate inner dialogue of two protagonists in an Anxious-Avoidant trap. This received worldwide press coverage and millions of views across the internet. Bahbah’s work has been featured in countless publications including New York Times, Forbes, Business Insider, The Cut, Vogue US, Hollywood Reporter, Vice and many more. In 2023 Bahbah released her first ever luxury fine art book, Dear Love, which sold more than 7500 copies upon launch.
