In this stark black and white painting, a young Palestinian girl sits alone amid the ruins of a destroyed town. With no family beside her and no one to offer comfort, she clings to a teddy bear - the only vivid colour in the work. Its bright red form cuts through the muted scene, symbolising both fleeting comfort and a childhood stolen by conflict. The work sets innocence against devastation, creating a haunting image of vulnerability, loss, and resilience.
