War has an impact on everyone individually and on all of humanity in general. Our goal is to show how artists from different parts of the world perceive war. This is an art discourse between artists and viewers.

«Be the artist. No matter what. Be the artist so steadfastly as if you could change the
world.»
My work as an artist is an adventure in self-discovery. I paint as a way of talking to myself

I want to speak out about the role of women? How can I do this effectively? How do I
express myself so that I can be heard?
I write prose. When I want to speak louder, I paint a new portrait that manifests my
thoughts. Then I gather those paintings in the collection that make a statement about
my ideas.
I argue and agree and argue with myself again and again. And with a new thought or
