Zein Eddine is known for his evocative portrayals of children set against haunting backgrounds that evoke the aftermath of conflict, skillfully contrasting innocence with the grim realities of adversity. His works often capture the expressive faces of children, rendered with profound sensitivity, their vibrant clothing standing in stark contrast to the somber contexts they are depicted in. This juxtaposition invites deep contemplation on themes of memory, loss, and resilience amidst the turmoil of war. In several of his pieces, this tension is heightened through textured, layered backgrounds, often incorporating fragments of newspaper excerpts. These remnants of history and media infuse the compositions with a sense of displacement, while underscoring the enduring spirit of survival and hope.
