"They are not paintings, nor works of art that we paint for those who are interested in art, to be collected or seen by those who are interested…It's our screams that go out and wound our throats, it's our blood formed by coal, ink and colors, it's the smile of our children that disappeared with their schools in a time not in their time or place, it's love in a time of war." - Gazan artist, Basel El Maqosi, August 5, 2025
