This artwork captures the lingering glow of a once-dazzling presence. A watery shimmer reflects from above, while crystal chandeliers spread their extravagant halo across every corner of the room. Beneath the spotlight, an elegant figure seems to emerge. Vintage televisions on both sides act like fragmented mirrors, replaying glimpses of her gestures and movements. Wild tropical flowers and plants bloom fiercely in the dim space, releasing their most seductive and intoxicating fragrance. Once at her most glamorous under the stage lights, after enduring life’s rises and falls, she quietly blossoms once again here in her own way.
This illustration captures the iconic Shibuya crossing at its most electrifying moment—an energetic swirl of lights, movement, and modern life. The flowing, dazzling elements in the air reflect the district's fast-paced evolution and its role as a hub for fashion, music, art, and culture. At the center of the chaos, a small panel reveals a quiet moment: a girl, seemingly lost in thought, stands still amid the rush. She represents both the artist and anyone who has ever found themselves overwhelmed yet captivated by Shibuya’s electric pulse—a symbol of the tension between urban noise and personal reflection.

To mark the 77th anniversary of the 1948 Nakba, we invite you to join us at the library in building a shared shelf dedicated to Palestine over the next month. This space will hold art, poetry, questions, books, and letters contributed by anyone who wishes to participate.
Join us as we create a collective space to name, process and navigate our experiences and reactions to the events currently unfolding in Palestine.
Despite the extremely difficult situation, we maintain hope that every small action advocating for fairness and compassion creates possibilities for a better world, and a better outcome for the people of Palestine.
To find out how to contribute to our collective shelf for Palestine, check out the slides above.
The shape of our collective shelf will evolve over the coming weeks as you join in to shape it.

This illustration captures the celebratory moment when the protagonist of my silent book Twin Flame finds his soulmate—a chameleon flower that dances with him like a girl. In the background, a floral jazz band plays in their honor, adding to the festive atmosphere.
