Grassroots Versus Global: The Spectrum of Aid in Gaza
This environmental art piece contrasts community-based aid with international assistance in Gaza. On one side, the artwork depicts local grassroots initiatives, symbolized by hands planting trees and building small structures from reclaimed materials, embodying the essence of community resilience and self-reliance. On the opposite side, large, structured installations represent international aid, with figures of foreign aid workers and large crates of supplies, symbolizing external support and its impact. Between these two worlds, a path made of stones and greenery suggests the interconnectedness and the potential synergies between local and global efforts. This piece captures the dynamic relationship between community-driven aid and international assistance, each playing a unique role in Gaza's landscape of need.
