Gaza Strip & Resistance (Coming Soon)

The image of Gaza before October 2023 reflects a vibrant, thriving city along the Mediterranean — a symbol of culture, community, and resilience before its destruction. Its mosques, skyline, and waterfront recall a proud urban heritage. In contrast, “Resistance,” a painting by Palestinian artist Maher Naji, captures the fiery aftermath and the collective uprising against erasure. It portrays defiant figures rising amid ruins, carrying both sorrow and strength. Together, these two images represent Gaza’s dual identity: the beauty that was, and the unyielding will to survive. They remind us that even when the city is shattered, its people remain unbroken.
