A few months ago I was approached by the Gmünder Kuntsverein curator, @stanislausmh , to take part in their Hoffen und Furcht exhibition, at Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany. Swipe to see this print as a massive flag flying in the streets of this town. This has been an amazing experience for me to be part of, I'm really so honoured. I hope it stays up long enough for me to visit.

I got fluorescent pink ink from @lymebaypress for a large print I'm working on. The ink is letterpress printing ink but I wanted to see how it works on lino. Impressive.

Print this block with me. In June 2024 Mahmoud Ajjour was 9 years old and his arms were severed during Israeli bombardment of Gaza City. "How will I be able to hug you?", he asked his mother when she told him his arms would be amputated at his shoulders.

"How will I be able to hug you?", Mahmoud Ajjour (9 years old), June 2024, to his mother on learning that his arms would be amputated. Mahmoud's arms were severed and mutilated during an Israeli attack on Gaza City. Samar Abu Elouf won the World Press Photo of the year for her portrait of Mahmoud.
Gaza has the highest number of child amputees per capita as a result of the Israeli genocide.

Hossam al-Masri, Reuters cameraman. In early 2024 Hossam returned to his home town to bear witness to the destruction caused by Israel:
"My home was here. My life was here. But life ended when the occupation destroyed everything I once had in this place. The place is desolate, utterly desolate. Life was once here. Children once played here. People once lived here. Yes, life was here. But now life has ended. Where are the houses? Where are the children? Where are the people who lived in this place? It is a desolate place. It is a dark place. Nothing remains here but the ruins we weep over. We weep over them."
Hossam al-Masri was assassinated by Israel on Monday 24 August 2025 in a targeted attack at al Nasser hospital.

'A message to my children. I would like to tell you that I built fake graves for you. After 13 months I have failed to find your pure bodies under the rubble. I am completely helpless without you. I apologise to you. Forgive me, your father, Wael.'

The UN has reported that 28 children are killed daily by Israel, with over 18,000 killed so far. These words are from Wael, a Palestinian father from Gaza, in a message translated by Motaz:
