Daily update from Nada | Art from Rubble 🎨🏚️

I believe art isn’t limited to colors alone.

Through Art from Rubble, I held a warm, love-filled therapeutic session with my creative students, aged 7–18 👩‍🎨🧑‍🎨

In this session, the students expressed their emotional and psychological states by drawing their feelings and writing short, heartfelt reflections. Together, we also created a collective artwork that blends innocence with pain ❤️‍🩹

Inspired by my lifelong love for Disney and the idea of a hopeful ending, I embodied Rapunzel—her golden hair becoming a symbol of inner light, saving her from darkness. Perhaps, in the end, that inner light is all we have to survive 💫

This activity helped both my students and me reclaim a sense of hope—and reminded us that we can still create art from amidst the rubble 🙏

This work is part of the Art from Rubble project, supported by The Hands Up Project.
