Crack

This table was drawn at the end of 2019, a month after the beginning of the Lebanese revolution. These events were the start of the descent to hell of our dear country Lebanon.

With this fracture I meant to represent a broken dream of a unified nation. I subsequently noticed that this crack looks a lot like the Lebanese coast, is it a coincidence or an intuition? I couldn’t tell..

Unfortunately, the more time passes by the more this table makes sense. Since August 4th 2020, the 3d biggest explosion in the world, a crime against humanity that is still unpunished till this date, this “Crack” is a feeling that is present in the hearts of all Lebanese people across the world.
