This painting reimagines the Pietà within the Palestinian struggle. The figure of Mary wears a traditional embroidered thobe and a headscarf, merging Christian and Muslim Palestinian identities into a single image of mourning and resistance. Originally painted as a mural on the apartheid wall in 2004, this work has taken on deeper meaning over the years. It stands as a testament for the last 80 years of Israeli occupation, apartheid and now the ongoing genocide in Gaza that has claimed both Muslim and Christian lives. In placing sacred imagery into the context of occupation, the painting challenges the viewer to acknowledge that grief is universal, and that the sanctity of life must not be forgotten.

15% of the profit will be donated to the Palestine Children's Relief Fund.
