Bayan Abu Nahla

“Perhaps much of what we once believed was never truth but a gentle and necessary illusion.It was something we chose quietly and almost unconsciously so we could continue without falling apart.” 

Bayan Abu Nahla is a visual artist born in 2001 in Gaza, Palestine. Her artistic practice functions as a visual diary, documenting and reflecting rapidly evolving events, both before and after the genocide. Through her work, she explores realities and daily living conditions often unknown to those who have not lived in Gaza.
