“…In my painting the music smugglers are bringing life - in the form of musical instruments - back to Palestine. Through a tunnel that passes under an apartheid wall, they ferry three instruments that are used in traditional Arabic music in Palestine and beyond - the oud, the darbouka, and the arghul. They are passing the instruments up into an olive tree where a mother and child receive them. The music is nourishing the roots of the olive tree and making it flourish, the music is nourishing the mother and child, who are perhaps Palestine herself, the music is nourishing the ancient indigenous olive tree whose roots grow under the wall and begin to crack its foundations.”

"One day in 2022, in Brussels and with a rare day off, I set out on foot, in a city I barely know, looking for trees to draw. Walked for ages, and all I found was a strip of woods between a busy round and some houses. But in the hours I spent there drawing, everything else faded away, and it was just me and the trees".

“This piece was made very recently, struggling to process what’s happening and how to respond - the litany of pain, the broken land, the complex histories, the devastation. I was feeling the echoes from a recent gathering of an elderly Jewish woman holding a handwritten sign denouncing the violence and a young Muslim woman, embracing each other. In beginning to draw, I felt again the embraces and the tears of people divided - particularly the leaders - returning to each other as kin, and the prayer that their shared tears might water the earth and cause it to bloom again.

AZUL THOMÉ

Estimated Value: £390 with its handmade bag
Dimensions : 1m80 in length
Process/methods : backstrap-weaving by hand. Hemp, wool, cashmere, shell, rosewood and black antique jet

“This LifeBelt is yin and Yang. Dark and light. Longing for equilibrium. To spin threads is to mend our broken world,
to weave sacred objects of devotion,
to create with my hands - a world that resonates with a longing for ensouled beauty, for the protection of all children of all species. I learned to weave in a war as a child in 1975… I will carry on until elders are rooted in the soil and soul of the WEB of LIFE”

“Seed girl is as old as knarled olive tree but as young as a spring shoot. Her hair is silver but her eyes are like regenerating waters. She holds near her the soft shadow of grief, but on her breast is a carved 'seed of life', for she dances through endings and beginnings as she pulls the thread of history behind her. “
