Banksy - New Street Pieces in GAZA Palestine + Video
Banksy - New Street Pieces in GAZA Palestine + Video
Banksy has unveiled 5 new street pieces in Palestine. One of the pieces is inspired by Rodin's 'Thinker' and is called Bomb Damage. See the images below. Two quotes by Banksy were also revealed.
Gaza is often described as 'the world's largest open air prison' because no-one is allowed to enter or leave. But that seems a bit unfair to prisons - they don’t have their electricity and drinking water cut off randomly almost everyday. -- Banksy
A local man came up and said 'Please - what does this mean?' I explained I wanted to highlight the destruction in Gaza by posting photos on my website – but on the internet people only look at pictures of kittens. -- Banksy
One of the pieces was text only and reads : "If We Wash Our Hands Of The Conflict Between The Powerful And The Powerless We Side With The Powerful - We Don't Remain Neutral".
There was also a video released to accompany this visit to GAZA in Palestine.
