It's Your Head That Bleeds

In late 2024, amidst war’s roar, I found quiet moments in Palestine — stillness in nature, kindness in people. My camera became a rebellious act, capturing fleeting beauty where chaos sought to erase it.

In late 2024, after months of attempting to cross borders from Jordan and Egypt amidst a backdrop of war, I finally entered Palestine. During this intense time, surrounded by the constant presence of warplanes, sirens, and soldiers, I found unexpected moments of peace — in stillness, nature, and the resilience of the Palestinian people. Having lived in the region for several years, this visit felt different; it was charged with urgency, and taking photographs became a rebellious act — capturing what others often attempt to erase. Each image reflects both the beauty and the tension of a place at the intersection of hope and conflict. What remains is a small, carefully selected collection of photographs that tell the story of those fleeting moments, where peace persists amid the chaos.
