Gaza: Resisting, Bearing Witness, Creating
As their lives, culture and history are being destroyed, Gazans use art as a form of resistance, using words, images and gestures to denounce occupation, war and genocide.
Art becomes a means of bearing witness to the reality of genocide and of preserving memory, in the hope of prompting action from the international community. These narratives and testimonies speak to both the everyday and the extraordinary: fear and loss, but also dreams, solidarity and perseverance. They reflect the resilience of a people fighting for survival in the face of systematic attempts at erasure by the Israeli government, carried out amid widespread silence.
