Chrabieh's artworks are part of her integrated (phygital) iconography collections - ex-pressing pieces of wounded memories of war by sublimating reality. Each icon depicts scattered elements of women torn by the vicious cycle of physical/psychological war and gives shape to the absence, the missing, the unspoken, the disintegrated,... to the after-lives of war survivors in their grief, nostalgia, exile, and remorse co-mingling with a slight hope (if any) for a future in which they reclaim the past from ossification, fixed boundaries, and hyperamnesia/hypoamnesia while transforming the immutable darkness to transitory realms.
