Feda Eid is a Lebanese-American visual artist living on occupied, unceded, territory of the Wampanoag, Nipmuc, and Massachusett People (Quincy,MA). Her portrait/self portrait work explores the expression of heritage, tradition, identity and the often tense, but beautiful space between what is said, what is felt, and what is lost in translation. She captures these emotions through her bold use of color, textiles, adornment and pop culture linking the past and present. As the daughter of Lebanese immigrants who fled the country's civil war in 1982, Feda is guided by her family's journey and her own childhood growing up as a Muslim in the US.

Feda studied Sociology at Regis College and photography at New England School of Photography. Her work has been exhibited at the Peabody Essex Museum, Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Lesley University, and The Shed NY among others. She was 2019 Visiting Studio Artist at The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and awarded the 2022 Massachusetts Artist Residency Fellowship at Mass MoCA Studios. Her recent series Made in USA, صنع في أمريكا was on view at the Boston Public Library central branch in February 2024.


The Invisible Labor

A Multicultural Group Exhibition Featuring 19 Mothers, Caregivers, and Nurturers

Co-curated by Christine Mitchell Adams + Tina Picz

Firefolk Arts, Waitsfield, VT | September 23 - November 1, 2023, during gallery hours.

Reception on Saturday, September 23, 2-5 PM

This group exhibit includes a diversity of mediums and materials, exploring the theme of caregiving / parenting / nurturing. We attempt to validate the labor that often remains unnoticed, unthanked, unpaid, or overlooked… and the loss of identity that is commonly sensed by caregivers as they navigate the ebb and flow of both grief and joy.
