תיקון אדם, תיקון עולם

“… as Israelis and Palestinians living here and witnessing reality every day, we have a duty to speak the truth as clearly as possible: Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinians.” – Yuli Novak, executive director of B’Tselem

« On ne peut pas être du côté de ceux qui font l’histoire, mais du service de ceux qui la subissent.» – Albert Camus

I am a young artist who holds brushes and colors instead of weapons. Every day, with a heart full of hope, I open a blank canvas and paint in my imagination a peaceful Gaza. I see a blue sky with no sound of explosions, children filling the streets with the music of their laughter, and mothers carrying prayers of peace upon their lips instead of tears.

For me, peace is the greatest work of art
a masterpiece that lives not in museums, but in people’s hearts.
And in that very moment, I find God
when tears turn into smiles and kindness returns to the soul of humanity.

With love,
A young artist

Todas las vidas humanas son irremplazables sin importar fronteras ni culturas.

I draw these flowers, because white poppy is an international symbol of peace and remembrance for all victims of all wars.
I can’t believe that in the age of AI and technological development, genocide, famine, and war still exist. Is it possible that after so many years of human evolution and development, we still haven’t learned not to kill each other? How strange and scary it is that someone is feeling very bad right now, that the simplest things are not available to them, and the rest of the world continues to lead its normal life and simply watches as people die. It’s scary that we can do so little, but we have to do something. At least not keep silent.

A lament for mothers

Those mothers who could not place happiness in the hands of their children. Not that they were incapable, but the oppression was beyond their capacity. Maybe there is a happier world somewhere else Its nights are starry and its days are brighter. Maybe in the other world the loudest sound is the laughter of a child whose balloon has been carried to the highest point of the sky by the wind. I created this painting in memory of the mothers and children whose joy has been robbed by the shadow of war.

“In Gaza, even survival, the barest form of victory, remains a struggle. This genocide must end now.”

You are not alone, and we stand for your life, peace, and right to exist. Peace, justice, and security are the fundamental rights of every human being, and no one should jeopardize these rights. With global empathy and cooperation, we keep the light of hope burning to ensure a safe future for children.

I stand against the savagery, cruelty and oppression of the imperial powers who are sucking out the joy and life from the face of the earth through war for their greedy ambitions. Thinking all the destroyed lives and the children of war, my heart and soul feel trapped in this cold and cruel world.

Death has spread its wings, yet the children remain alive.
In the heart of war, this image echoes the voices of children who refuse to be silenced. We, the artists, are storytellers of pain and hope. Art is humanity. Our voices stand with Gaza.
