Artwork by BASSAM SHMORDOK

Whether painting on canvas, sculpting, or capturing an image on film, Bassam knew from a very young age that he wanted to create and it was obvious that he had an ability to see and express his ideas in profound ways. He continuously nourished his interests, as a student, with the support and evaluation of his instructors. As his skills and vision have grown, so has his portfolio, cultivating a successful career in art and photography.

Bassam’s work as an artist allowed him to travel throughout Canada for four years, deepening his appreciation for its landscape and people. He was then based in Calgary for several years, exploring the Rockies and expanding his vision. Bassam has also completed many inspiration photography trips including several months in the Middle East and a year-long trip to New Zealand. The result is a diverse portfolio, including fine art, film work, commercial projects, event coverage, and the mastery of realm of photography.
