A Palestinian Artist Expresses the Plight of His People through Artwork on Cactus Plants

Ahmad Yaseen, a talented Palestinian artist, has found an extraordinary medium to convey the hardships endured by his people – prickly cactus plants. In a unique and innovative approach, Yaseen captivates audiences with his artistic expressions, drawing attention to Palestinian suffering through a canvas that had previously gone unnoticed.

Instead of depicting the ongoing hostilities between Israelis and Palestinians, Yaseen chooses to portray elements that offer a ray of hope. His cherished collection of illustrations features two adorable infants—one peacefully cradled in its mother’s embrace, while the other nourishes itself through breastfeeding.
