🎨 Art from Rubble | Daily Update with Nada 🌿

Because I believe in the power of collective work, even across distance, we carried out a special collaborative session between my students in the camp east of Deir al-Balah and teacher Sahar’s students in the western part of Gaza.

Together, over 15 students joined forces to turn pain into art and rubble into a message of hope.

They visited destroyed sites to collect materials — pieces of iron, wire, nylon, and plastic — and transformed them into stunning artworks:

Iron sheets became flower petals

Wires formed stems and letters spelling our project’s name

Nylon and plastic became canvases for paintings of homes and memories lost

Despite all challenges, it was a deeply emotional and inspiring experience.

Each piece is a reminder that creativity survives even among the ruins.
