Gaza cultural group revives mosaic workshop using rubble from destroyed homes
The Association of Culture and Free Thought in Gaza has restarted its mosaic art program for children, using stones and bricks collected from war rubble as raw materials.
- The workshop teaches children mosaic techniques based on Palestinian cultural heritage, particularly scenes from before the 1948 Nakba.
- Artist Mohammed Abu Lahiya stated that a shortage of cement forces the use of ground and recycled rubble as a substitute binding material.
- Fourteen-year-old participant Kenan Mustafa Ramadan said her family home was bombed less than a year ago and she now uses mosaic art for psychological relief.
- Fifteen-year-old Enaya Abu Hadrous said the program helps her overcome the war's pressures and preserve Palestinian heritage, though proper tools such as colors are lacking.
