Art and I
by Rita EL KHAYAT
Arts are the unique unknown sphere of my personality or sensitivity: even if I was under a pseudonym - “Latifa Chakir” - a 
Woman to child/
Femme à l'enfant
Artist: Rita EL KHAYATgreat DJ and artist when I was studying Medicine (the unique way to cross this infernal season, illnesses, blood, pain, death, surgery, infernal chiefs as Masters, horrific co-disciples, cancer, nothing to be cured, atrocious services of paediatrics, hell for Children), my existence as ARTIST was rapped and destroyed, ignored and forbidden.
Now, I can (allowed to?) say I’m an artist as well as I’m Physician, Psychiatrist, Psychoanalyst, Writer and Knight of Throne…
It was a total taboo to be an artist in my family and society…
But, I did everything in my life as an ARTIST… ![]()

With Beauty,
Maybe with Talent,
Researching Peace through drawings of Leaves and Flowers, through this ability to re consider the World and Universe sounding and singing: Joy, Happiness, Perfection, You and Me, Old and Young,
We’re eternal,
Believe me: to be an ARTIST is a part of Divinity!
A work of art has no importance whatever to society. It is only important to the individual. Vladimir Nabokov |
