This painting by Fareeha Ghezal Yousufzai was part of an exhibition featuring female Afghan painters called "Make Art, Not War," that was shown in Austria, Italy, Spain, China, and the U.S in 2007.
"It's a tree so withered and broken that only a single scarred branch is still struggling heavenwards. Yet all life has not gone: a tiny leaf, green against the cerulean blue of the sky, stubbornly clings to a twig. For the circle of burka-clad women huddling around the forlorn trunk in the hot, dusty sunshine, it is a sign of hope."
