Seven black-and-white portraits line up against a red background. Huge black holes replace the figures’ eyes. “Wars are one of the evil roots, turning humans into monsters, victims, and others watching and ignoring,” writes artist Murad Subay in a caption next to his mural.

In conversation with Murad Subay about Art & Human Rights\ With “HRFF” Berlin.

Since the outbreak of the war, Murad Subay has been painting on walls and ruins across Yemen. With his art, he shows the devastating consequences of war, poverty, and disease, and denounces the war crimes of all parties involved – including those in the West, whose arms exports are contributing to Yemeni suffering.

Dedication to the people of Afghanistan, “The Supreme Council of Terrorism”.

Twenty years of war, preceded by twenty others, and Afghanistan and its people are still living persecution, death and ignorance.
It passed through the soil of this beautiful country, the Soviets, Radical Islamists, the Americans and their allies, and they turned it into ashes.
Afghanistan was handed over and with the sponsorship of the international Powers on a silver platter to this Radical group, which will serve the interests of the international powers through fighting proxy wars in the future, and the heavy cost which the Afghan people especially women and children that will pay is not important.

My most recent Design is “The Supreme Council of Terrorists”.

“Children Recruitment” my mural, Aden, Yemen. August 2021

Since the outbreak of the war, the parties to the war, especially in the north, have sought to use all means of dirty war, including the recruitment of children, which was and is more severe, especially after the systematic destruction of the educational system, which in turn left millions of children without education, as well as the militias of various types and agendas by recruiting and brainwashing thousands of children, taking advantage of the poverty that people have reached in Yemen.

[English]

Art has an extraordinary capacity to provoke, protest and enlighten.

Less than two days after I executed the mural collage of “Subjugation” in the heart of Paris, the collage was brutally ripped down.

My work, especially the political work, has suffered a lot of blurring, disfigurement across the years, but every time it happens it makes me realize that I am on the right track.

“Subjugation”, in the heart of Paris, 25 July 2021

[English]

“Subjugation”

Seven years of War, death and oppression in Yemen,

where everything is being destroyed and divided.

My mural in the heart of Paris, exactly next to Seine River shore, between the musem of Louvre and the Musem d’Orsay, Paris 25 July 2021.

A special Thanks to the amazing friend Jeannette Bougrab , Samuel Valkeapaa and the child May for their wonderful support.

Note: This mural inspired by the “Scream” the famous work of the Norwegian great painter Edvard Munch.
