I'd like to thank everyone who made 2018 such an enriching year for me, and in particular the inhabitants of Balata Refugee Camp (Palestine), the Roma community in the slum of Nanterre (France) and the Congolese, Somalian, Ethiopian, Rwandese, South Sudanese, Eritrean, and Burundese Refugees of Nakivale (Uganda). Also I'd like to give a huge shukran to my friends/helpers Dudu aka Aswad Black and Abdul Malek for helping me along the way! Plus all the people who've helped me in other ways!
And last but not least thank you to all of those who've bought some of my art this year! You're the people enabling all this to happen!
In 2019 I will carry on using art to highlight the voices of marginalised populations around the world! Stay tuned, and have a great new year! --- The picture is a portrait of a new friend I made this year : La Douce who fled ultra violence in Congo and now lives in Uganda.
