Born in the Libyan capital Tripoli, the artist Ahmed Barudi has been exposed to art from a young age, given that his father was an art lover and his mother an art teacher. It was especially through his father that he developed his artistic skills, as he always encouraged the young Ahmed to go beyond his imaginative confines and thus to improve his own artistic style.
Even though he graduated in engineering, Ahmed Barudi took advantage of his academic experience to define his passion for art. Indeed, drawing graphics with vectors and curves, and using many colour palettes, helped him to further develop his creativity and familiarize himself with graphic design.
Over the years, he understood that photography was the perfect way to express his art. Thus, in order to improve his abilities with the camera and with computer programs for the post-production of his photos, he attended several workshops both in Libya and abroad (Dubai, London, Jordan).
Ahmed Barudi took part in several local exhibitions of art, calligraphy and photography, among which the Dar Hasan Alfaqieh in Tripoli (2016), as well as in international exhibitions, at the French Institute of Tunisia and at the Mannheim City Council in Germany in 2017. He was also Creative Manager at Streams Media in 2015 and a member of the Libyan Printmakers in 2017. Ahmed Barudi is the founding member of the Libyan Photography Organization.
