Children of the Occupation No. 1 by Saher Nassar
Saher Nassar (b. Gaza, 1986) explores the violation of domestic space in his series, Children of the Occupation. What should be a sanctuary becomes a site of intrusion, as soldiers move through kitchens, bedrooms, and living rooms with reckless, even sadistic detachment. Based on personal experience, Nassar reveals the emotional toll of occupation—how war enters the most private corners of life and strips away the safety and dignity of home. Through this work, he exposes the devastating impact of military presence on both space and psyche.
