Destruction and Resurrection

An in-painting tour

The Last Christ (2019) by Mohammed Al-KinaniAl-Ghad Radio

The artist has created an emotive discourse on the distortion of religious ideology by ISIS.

The depiction of Christ’s head makes reference to the very great sacrifice and suffering endured by many within the city, especially among minority communities. 

It seems also to make reference to resurrection and rebirth...

Creating a clear vision of hope for the future of Mosul.
