Malak Mattar: the young (23) famous #painter from #Gaza #Palestine .

Her colorful paintings focus on Gazan women & the struggles they face.

“Women in Gaza are twice oppressed: by the #IsraeliOccupation that traps them in Gaza & by the #patriarchal values of #Palestinian society”

C’est en 2014 à Gaza que la carrière d’artiste de Malak Mattar, alors âgée de 13 ans, a débuté sous les bombardements israéliens. À la recherche d’un moyen d’'évacuer [son] énergie négative', elle a ramassé une boîte d’aquarelles et s’est mise à peindre bit.ly/3Gusr2a

and opens;only something in me understands

Malak Mattar tenía 13 años y vivía bajo el bombardeo israelí en #Gaza cuando decidió dirigir su 'energía negativa' a la pintura.

Today is the National Day of the Palestinian Woman. Love and support to all the wonderful, inspiring, indefatigable, strong, and defiant #Palestinian sisters out there, happy our day ❤
