Mis queridos colaboradores del Journal 4 Gaza,
​
¡Primero que nada, gracias! Ésta es una contribución que podemos hacer para mostrar al mundo la difícil situación de los palestinos y crear una fuerte representación visual de la magnitud de este genocidio.

Comencemos con el Jounral 4 Gaza con las primeras 30 páginas, porque estas 30 páginas representan aproximadamente 6700 personas cuyos nombres pude obtener del Ministerio de Salud palestino.

Esto es lo que debemos lograr antes del 1 de marzo de 2024:
5 páginas en rosa, que representan aprox. 1001 niñas de 1 a 14 años – color ROSA
2 páginas en naranja, que representan aprox. 494 mujeres jóvenes de 15 a 24 años – color NARANJA
5 páginas en rojo, que representan aprox. 1070 mujeres de 25 a 55 años – color ROJO
1 página en color beige, que representa aprox. 230 mujeres de 56 a 74 años – color BEIGE
 
5 páginas en azul claro, que representan aprox. 1143 niños de 1 a 14 años – color AZUL CLARO
3 páginas en azul oscuro, que representan aprox. 734 jóvenes de 15 a 24 años – color AZUL OSCURO
7 páginas en color violeta, que representan aprox. 1562 hombres de 25 a 55 años – color PÚRPURA
1 página en negro, que representa aprox. 291 hombres de 56 a 74 años – color NEGRO

Puedes utilizar cualquier tono del color indicado, pero reserva unos 100 cm del hilo que utilices. Se le pedirá que envíe esto con la página para que pueda usarlo en la tabla de códigos de colores que se agregará al proyecto.

Utilice este enlace para confirmar su participación y poner su nombre junto a la selección de color de su página para garantizar que hagamos el mejor uso del tiempo y el esfuerzo.

My dearest contributors to Journal 4 Gaza,
​
First of all THANK YOU! This is a one contribution we can make to bring to the world the plight of Palestinians, and to create a strong visual representation of the size of this genocide.

Let us start with the Jounral 4 Gaza with the first 30 pages, because these 30 pages represent approximately 6700 people whose names I waws able to source from the Palestinian Ministry of Health.

Here’s what we need to accomplish by the 1st March 2024:

• 5 Pages in pink, representing approx. 1001 girls aged 1 to 14 – colour PINK
• 2 Pages in orange, representing approx. 494 young women aged 15 to 24 – colour ORANGE
• 5 Pages in red, representing approx. 1070 women aged 25 to 55 – colour RED
• 1 Page in beige, representing approx. 230 women aged 56 to 74 – colour BEIGE

 

• 5 Pages in light blue, representing approx. 1143 boys aged 1 to 14 – colour LIGHT BLUE
• 3 Pages in dark blue, representing approx. 734 young men aged 15 to 24 – colour DARK BLUE
• 7 Pages in purple, representing approx. 1562 men aged 25 to 55 – colour PURPLE
• 1 Page in black, representing approx. 291 men aged 56 to 74 – colour BLACK

You can use any tone of the indicated colour, but please set aside about 100cm of the yarn you use. You will be asked to send this with the page so I may use it in the color code chart which will be added to the project.

Use this link to confirm your participation and to put your name next to your page colour selection to ensure we make best use of time and effort.

If you have more questions, please see the FAQs here. If your question is not answered in the FAQs, please email me so I can add it.

Dear Crocheters and Knitters,
I wanted to share with you an update on this project. Here's a quick overview:

• 15 People have expressed their interest in participating in this project.
• I've met with Waldorf School in Valencia and done a presentation for the teachers & the children. I was very touched by their interest and their questions. And I'm happy to say both teachers and children will be participating by crocheting and knitting pages for this journal.
• Meanwhile, a week earlier, I was invited to recite a poem of my own and a poem by a well-known Palestinian poet - I chose Fadwa Tuqan. The event took place at Sede Universitaria Cuidad de Alicante and over 40 other locations throughout Spain, with the participation of so many Spanish poets and other poets living in Spain. There's building awareness and compassion and solidarity here in Spain.
• If you'd like to join this growing group of participants in creating an Art Installation that aims to create a record and visual representation of this genocide, reach out, comment, share.

Painfully, as I'm launching the initial phases of project, the death tool continues to rise. 
I have spread the word and reached out to family, friends and connections via email, WhatsApp, on Facebook, Instagram, The Dots, and face to face. I'm grateful for all the people who have expressed their intention in participating and being part of this project - although painful, I hope it will create more awareness and draw attention to what's happening right now. And for 107 days so far.
I've had to make a few decisions concerning the numbers, the age groups, the gender, the language, and other details in order to better represent the magnitude of this genocide. 
Please watch this space as I share with you the developments of this project.
Please share the video above as widely as you can and comment below if you're interested in supporting it in any way. You can also share the document below which has the details as the projects stands right now.
Thank you to everyone who has already reached out.
