SONJA STICH Oliven nah und fern
Motifs "Olive Nah" and "Olive Fern" are an edition within the edition. On the one hand, the images address the ecological fragility of these trees and are therefore an integral part of the "Erdbeeren aus Spanien" edition.
On the other hand, they address how the significance of this plant has changed in the course of the escalating war in Palestine: The destruction of ancient olive trees in the West Bank is part of an atrocious warfare against the Palestinians, their culture and their habitat.
Like the outer, ornamental frame of the Kufiya, with these two motifs we take up the olive leaf as a symbol of strength, resilience and endurance.
