Grove of Watermelons

Artist's Statement

As an Korean Canadian artist, with my own history tied into war and the United States' unending colonial and imperial involvement in Asia, I created this piece as as a witness and commitment to creative solutions, to imagine hope, and to express solidarity with the Palestinian community. The 75 years of resilience of Palestine and its people, is nothing short of inspiring and persevering, and it is our duty to recognise their humanity. 

This piece depicts not only one, but a grove of watermelons, entwined with each other against the earth. I hope that the Palestinians can feel solidarity coming from all corners of the Earth.

Ceasefire now, and forever.
