Digital illustration showing a large excavator bucket uprooting a section of Palestinian land that contains a burning building, several people, and an olive tree from the right side of a divided urban landscape. Below, Israeli figures stand beneath a raised platform with settlement buildings awaiting to replace the uprooted land, while tanks and a fortified wall appear on the right. On the left, a separate cluster of gray city buildings sits on previously seized land. The image uses floating land masses, construction equipment, and military imagery as visual metaphors for displacement, segregation, apartheid, and Israel’ ethnic cleansing in the occupied West Bank.
