Collage Portraits of Palestinians by the Artist Mandy King
Collage Portraits of Palestinians by the Artist Mandy King
Since Oct 2023, at every meet of The Social Glue of Sydney, the artist Mandy King has been painstakingly constructing a succession of paper collage portraits of Palestinians murdered by Israel. These are people who can not be fully mourned as their world continues to burn around them. Entire family bloodlines are wiped out, so there is no one left to mourn. The collage form, which requires time and focus, becomes a form for love, respect, and memorialisation.

WHAT TO WEAR
Please wear blue. If you can. make a white bib with the word PRESS on it. We have a few of these to give away but not enough for all
DURING THE RALLY
To maximise our impact, it would be great to walk together. Any other marchers carrying signs to do with Press freedoms are encouraged to walk with us.
AFTER THE RALLY
If possible please return the coreflute at the end of the march to the same place you picked it up so it can be used for ongoing actions. However it's yours to use as you see fit - because the placards are double sided they are excellent for office windows...or for another action
IF YOU CANNOT ATTEND
let us know so someone else can carry your placard. Message via the instagram account @resonant_deaths
