Episode 6 - Rafik El Hariri | Graphic Designer and Illustrator Libnanie with Elie: A Lebanese Podcast

With 1 in 4 people living with at least one mental health issue in Lebanon, it is important that the conversation around mental health never ends. And our special guest on this week's episode of "Libnanie with Elie" continues the dialogue of this silent epidemic through his whimsical and wonderful Squid Game-esque illustrations. 
Rafik El Hariri, an artist, a university instructor, and a professional night owl, discusses his recent achievement of being featured in the Forbes Middle East 30 Under 30 list, his macabre artworks and their connection to mental health, the power of art during a time of despair, and the impact of social media.
Rafik also recently published a new picture book for adults titled "I Found A Heart" where he explores the topics of mental health, love, and self-discovery. The picture book is available for local and international purchase from Halabi Bookshop here: https://bit.ly/3k8pefJ
