Gaza artist displaced by war uses improvised tools to depict Palestinian suffering and destruction

Many Palestinians displaced by Israel's war on Gaza have experienced dramatic life changes. Al Jazeera spoke with a Palestinian artist who uses her skills to depict the suffering of her people over the past nine months. Aseel Hassan Nasman, a 22-year-old former student of artistic education and graphic design at Al Aqsa University, could not graduate due to the war. Displaced multiple times, she lost all her tools and paintings when her house was bombed. After a three-month hiatus, she resumed painting using makeup kits and children's sets, illustrating the hunger, displacement, bombardment, destruction, and deaths her people endure.

The artist is gifted! Unfortunately tragedy is her subject.
Millions and millions of people do care about your pain and suffering. We can NOT CONTROL THE POLITICIANS AND THE MONEY THAT ISRAEL AND JEWS GIVE TO THE POLITICIANS.

May Allah (Subhanahu wa ta’ala) help her to get sponsored for her art and being able to sell them in international art houses and help her family and Palestine with the money. Art can make insanely money and those painting are touching.

In future please point out to the audience that protecting the building projects on the Red Sea is of primary importance for both Saudi and Israel. Whilst all these diversion reports are in effect, they have successfully opened one Hotel last year and another due to open this year.
Safest place in the world. No one firing rockets anywhere other than the Levant. World wide investors would not put their projects in jeopardy. Happy holidays world!

Does this artist have social media? Is there a way we can keep up with her art work?

[RationalityPersonality-wv]

When will Al Jazeera English have a video on Jewish artists in Israel? Probably never due to their intense anti-semitism.

[thewatcher]

It's amazing how this artist can get her work framed so nicely with war and destruction all around her.
