What I Am Looking At: Emily Henochowicz
June 2nd, 2010
Emily Henochowicz’s blog [ Thirsty Pixels ]
Obstruction:
Ingredients; One layer of determined activist over a layer of obediently angry army men, and a layer of camera people (to give it that worldly flavor) with a bulldozer on-top!
Emily Henochowicz is the American artist/activist, who lost her eye during clashes with Israeli troops at the Kalandia checkpoint between the West Bank city of Ramallah and Jerusalem yesterday, Monday, May 31, 2010.
“Activism as a Genre of Art” is a nice idea but difficult to follow to its logical end when the opposition is willing to exert it’s interests with overwhelming violent means.
Are you willing to give your eye, your hand, your hearing, or your voice to your cause?
- My prayers are with Emily
