About the Art

The artist was deeply taken by beloved Refaat's poetry. If he asked for his story to be told, then this is one way of telling it; carrying his words on apparel so they move through streets, through conversations, through hearts. The clothing becomes more than fabric; it becomes testimony. A way for his voice to continue speaking, even after him. At the heart of the piece are the words of martyr Refaat Alareer and his poem If I Must Die. His line: If I must die, you must live to tell my story — carries a responsibility. It is not just poetry; it is a request. A trust placed in those who remain. The olive branches and gold border were hand-painted directly onto canvas, preserving the texture and sincerity of handmade art. The olives symbolize rootedness and resilience, while the gold frame honors the sacredness of the words held within. May he rest in peace, Ameen.
