Artwork description:

The artwork is a powerful and contemporary reinterpretation of Caravaggio's 'Descent from the Cross,' transposed into the devastation of Gaza.

The scene, charged with pathos, preserves the drama and chiaroscuro of the original masterpiece, but its setting in a destroyed hospital amplifies the tragedy and sense of loss.

The lifeless body, painfully supported by those trying to save it, becomes a universal symbol of human suffering in the face of blind violence.
Fragments of broken writings and ruins evoke the destruction of spaces that should be sacred to care and hope, but here are reduced to silent witnesses of a collective drama.

The work is not only a tribute to the art of the past but also a piercing denunciation of the dehumanization that accompanies every conflict. It is a visual cry, a manifesto of resistance and memory, inviting the viewer to reflect, not to turn away, and to question the value of life and humanity.
