The need to search for inspiration in sources of humanism and love that can reduce animosity and build peace, prosperity and justice in this part of the world is bigger than ever.

Being a visual artist herself and a big fan of street art, she also painted some murals on the walls of the Arab world, and even in Oslo (Norway), one of the cities to which Arabs flee from the terrible situations in their countries. Those murals are an attempt to express the essence of the timeless poetry she chose, and to mirror the situation in the Arab streets today. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAbout Tania saleh:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTania Saleh is a Lebanese singer\/songwriter\/visual artist who has been paving her own path in the Arabic indie alternative musical scene since 1990. Her songs are a mix between the traditional Arabic music she was raised on (dabke, tarab and mawwal ) and the western sounds she chose to follow ( folk, rock, jazz, bossa nova, electronic ). She also has a passion for visual arts, illustration and animation. By mixing both music and interesting imagery, Tania Saleh is reinventing herself in every way. She has released 5 albums to date - the latest, an audiovisual album entitled \"Intersection\" in collaboration with music producer Khalil Judran and Norwegian producer Erik Hillestad from Kirkelig Kulturverksted, Norway. \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHow it all started:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBack in 2013, a meeting between Tania Saleh and Khalil Judran (international sound artist, electronic music composer and producer who contributed to numerous experimental and underground music projects, including “Checkpoint 303”) was made possible by the Norwegian label Kirkelig Kulturverksted (KKV) and gave rise to an unexpected, yet natural musical explosion, where edgy post-pop electronica is mixed with magical Oriental melodies and powerful contemporary Arab poetry.

The songs are about love, though not the sweet romantic kind. Rather this is about all-consuming, passionate love, and lost and failed love. This is love seen from a woman’s point of view in a region of the world where men rule, where a woman's needs are silenced or suppressed.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOn her new CD she gives us 11 tracks, mostly with her own melodies and lyrics.
