women in Gaza

"Earlier this year, Naraman Farah left her husband as he was "totally against" her continuing to paint. "So many doors have been closed to Palestinian women in Gaza. It's like getting out of one prison only to find another door closed. There are many obstacles – the occupation, the blockade, the internal Palestinian division. I am not representative of Palestinians, but as women we need to feel free. The moment that is no longer possible, you have to act on it, to do something."" (thanks Talal)
