Abstract

In this visual essay, Mazen Kerbaj and Jana Traboulsi bear witness to the genocidal violence that has been unfolding in Gaza since 7 October 2023. From Berlin and Lebanon, respectively, Kerbaj and Traboulsi have been chronicling and responding to the harrowing day-to-day news and testimonies from Gaza. Their drawings raise fundamental questions about what it is to bear witness to genocide as it unfolds, about the politics of seeing as an act of solidarity against imposed invisibility and about racialized sight – the eye that refuses to see what is hiding in plain sight.

众目睽睽下的加沙：声援见证

在这篇视觉散文中，Mazen Kerbaj 和 Jana Traboulsi 见证了自 2023 年 10 月 7 日以来在加沙发生的种族灭绝暴力事件。Kerbaj 和 Traboulsi 分别来自柏林和黎巴嫩，他们一直在记录和回应来自加沙的令人痛心的日常新闻和证词。他们的绘画提出了一些根本性的问题：在种族灭绝发生时，见证种族灭绝是什么；作为声援行动的 "看 "的政治，反对强加的 "看不见"；种族化的视线--拒绝看到隐藏在众目睽睽之下的东西的眼睛。
