About

Hamdi Zaino is a 23 years old artist, painter & student who was studying fine arts at university in Gaza where he was born.

"The recent prolonged war on Gaza has turned my place of residence, work & studio into a painful memory. I have lost many people around me (subjected to forced displacement) & I only carry my tablet with me in hopes of finding a way to continue expressing myself and producing digital artwork. My family, consisting of six members, & I have been displaced more than five times, each time encountering tragedy. We continue our attempts to live despite the painful situations, which have been a great shock to me and many of my people who have their own stories.

 

My big dream is to convey humanitarian messages through my talent in practicing art, speaking for myself & for every free individual. Perhaps my works have turned to express the suffering I have been experiencing lately, but this is the least impact that (the genocide war) may cause... & the fear of the unknown future. I am Hamdi & I hope you can save what remains of my life & my family's life, or save the artistic & humanitarian messages that originate from my heart & my brush with your generous donation. Your support is extremely important. You will save lives & messages. My family & I will be very grateful to you."
