Art for Peace

Last week a Syrian-French artist flew in from Marseilles to Malmö to contribute to the exhibition Syrian Art for Peace, arranged by our Peace and Conflict Programme students. During 12 hours Rohan Houssein painted 'Zenobia is crying'. In the video linked below, the process of painting it is presented and Rohan explains all the symbols making up the painting. Enjoy!

In Memorandum...

I used not to be so fond of him. Having read Winnie's autobiography, I kind of lost it somehow. However, what happened after his release from Robben Island turned out to be a changer for me. Few individuals have made such a change, just by being true to their beliefs, values, principles. Such people have no age. They become icons, sources of inspiration, wells of hope.

Rest in peace, but stay with us. We need it so dearly.

THE TIME IS ALWAYS RIPE TO DO RIGHT
