A photograph sealed under plexiglass and mounted, 60 x 39 cm

 

The photograph depicts an extract of an article from an English newspaper, summer 2002, about the conflict in the Middle East. There was no accompanying picture; the message in stark words suffices to suggest images of an oppressed and desperate people, the Palestinians who bring death by violence to themselves and any Israelis in the vicinity. These, with equal exasperation revenge themselves by destroying Palestinian homes and further displacing a people in their own land.
