The artist's solo exhibition is on show at the Sfeir-Semler gallery in Beirut until 16 March. These works were originally presented at the UNESCO Palace in Beirut in 1999, and have since been stored in the artist's studio.
Aref El Rayess titled them Labyrinthes, and they were described at the time by Joseph Tarrab as "networks that duplicate those of nature, science and industry, and in which man is prey to an unprecedented identity crisis triggered by the power of nature".
The paintings on show are brightly coloured and abstract in form, with an emphasis on geometry and sculptural compositions. They were produced in the 1990s and are inspired by the psychedelic era of the 1960s.
