About the Artist
About Ghada Ayoub
Ghada Ayoub is a Detroit-based mixed media artist who combines glass mosaic and glass painting to explore emotion, movement, and the natural world. Originally from Lebanon, she developed an early passion for art through school competitions, where recognition for her work encouraged a lasting commitment to visual expression.
Her background in architectural drafting and CAD design informs her approach to structure, precision, and composition. These foundations support the intricate arrangements of hand-cut glass, flowing patterns, and layered textures that characterize her work.
Bringing traditional mosaic craftsmanship into a contemporary practice, Ayoub uses luminous color and reflective surfaces to create depth and movement. Her subjects range from symbolic abstractions to expressive figures, portraiture, and the natural world.

Artist Statement
I use glass mosaic and glass painting to explore emotion, movement, and the beauty of nature. I am drawn to the way glass reflects light, allowing a piece to change as the viewer moves around it.
My process combines the precision of my architectural drafting background with the freedom of artistic expression. Through hand-cut glass, color, and texture, I explore how fragile pieces can come together to create strength and harmony.
I hope my work invites people to pause, look closer, and find their own connection within the details.
