"The olive tree is more than a tree in Palestine, it is a heartbeat, a witness, a rooted elder holding centuries in its branches. When Israeli forces and settlers tear these groves from the earth, it is not only roots that are severed, but memory, heritage, and the quiet dreams of generations. Yet even uprooted, the olive carries a stubborn truth: that belonging cannot be erased, and that the land remembers those who loved it." Sliman Mansour of Palestine

#artistvsart2023 🍉It was my honour doing art about Palestine since October helping to draw attention towards the situation in Palestine in a gentle way🇵🇸 even though it’s a very dark and rough time I really wanted to spread some hope and positivity and give that feeling to the world and to everyone who needs it. Now the year is ending and all I wish for Palestine and for our world is peace and light instead of war and hate. May the new year holds nothing but love and light 💡to everyone everywhere . #artistvsart #artistsoninstagram #artforpeace #artforacause #artists #artoftheday #artofinstagram #artforpalestine

"The work of Shereen Audi, who splits her time between Canada and Jordan, also serves as a symbol of hope. She has created a number of collages on paper, wood and canvas, including With Love to Palestine, in which she’s used images of lemons, olives, birds, jasmine, poppies and watermelons. These elements represent what Palestine is famous for and what makes it beautiful, she says, and the artwork has been shared far and wide across social media platforms in recent days.

She hopes these new pieces “help draw attention to the situation in this beautiful country that only deserves peace and deserves to stay alive”.

With Love to Palestine is one of her favourites, it gives “a feeling of light in these dark times and a little bit of hope to everyone”, she adds.

She has donated a print of the piece to Gallery Bawa in Kuwait, which is holding an emergency relief sale called Prints for Palestine. All proceeds will be donated to the Kuwait Red Crescent Society. The gallery is collaborating with research platform and collective Mathqaf in Doha, which reached out to the artists involved, and Dubai’s Gulf Photo Plus, which is helping with printing, packaging and shipping."

Arab artists supporting Palestine with bold new works

Horrified by the Israel-Gaza war, many creatives are donating works to raise relief funds for trapped Palestinians

"Pablo Picasso once described artists as political beings, constantly aware of the heartbreaking things happening in the world. “Painting is not made to decorate apartments,” he said. “It’s an offensive and defensive weapon.”

For many artists across the Arab world witnessing the war unfolding in Gaza, weaponising their art has become the only way for them to process the tragedies."... READ MORE https://www.thenationalnews.com/arts-culture/art-design/2023/10/30/arab-artists-supporting-palestine-with-bold-new-works/
