Although Miriam has obtained a science degree from Beirut University College a diploma in Medical Technology from AUB and worked for some time in that field. She realized that her passion for art and design was stronger than the world of science and technology. That led her to pursue her studies achieving a diploma in interior design from “ la Salle College Chicago” and she did a few projects in that field.
Moving later with her family to London “ The capital of Art” Miriam Strode forward by joining Various colleges and institutions and modelled her artistic path with dedication, perseverance and mostly passion.
This journey through the artistic world is obvious in Miriam’s art which is about the beauty of an impulsive idea which could be a dream, a nostalgic scene, a thought or a memory blending fantasy with real images.
it is all about creating harmony amongst space, lines and colours with bold brush strokes, creating a message of a certain emotional experience.
Colour is a crucial aspect for her as she transforms colour into an active element creating a vivid and layered composition representing free abstract subjects, far from the real world.
She participated through the years, with many exhibitions in many countries and on different occasions.
