#artistvsart2023
πIt was my honour doing art about Palestine since October helping to
draw attention towards the situation in Palestine in a gentle wayπ΅πΈ
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 π‘to everyone
everywhere . #artistvsart #artistsoninstagram #artforpeace #artforacause #artists #artoftheday #artofinstagram #artforpalestine

year : 2023 media : collage on paper in solidarity with the people of
Palestine π΅πΈ #artwork #palestine "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
