“I am part of the part that once was everything, part of the darkness which gave birth to light“ - Goethe
When darkness weaves into the soul, the need for escape becomes a primal force.
When life feels heavy, the desire emerges to chase after the unexplored.
Heading towards new sparks where uncertainty whirls with freedom.

About Leslie Akl
![](http://kulturnest.com/cdn/shop/files/lesly-akl-kulturnest-art-her-way-exhibition-lebanon.jpg?v=1707811602)
Leslie Akl wears many hats - she's a vocologist, vocal coach, and speech-language pathologist with a rich career in hospitals, research, and international conferences. She has also collaborated with major TV singing programs, serving as a jury member and head coach.
Beyond the medical and TV scenes, Leslie has been cultivating since childhood another outlet for her skills – painting. Her art echoes the same passion and precision you'd find in her work with voices. Her paintings reveal a fresh yet expressive mix of color and form, like a visual version of the cadence she brings to her vocal practice. The canvases are alive with a vibrancy that matches the energy of spoken words and melodies and her art is a shoutout to communication, inviting us to see the links between what we hear and what we see.
Leslie’s journey from the world of sound to the world of sight invites us to perceive the world through the lens of a multi-sensory artist. With each stroke, she encourages us to listen with our eyes and see with our ears—a testament to the interconnectedness of artistic expression. In Leslie's art, the boundaries between voice and vision blur, creating a captivating dialogue between her knowledge and love of voice and her evolving artistic identity.
