A Sky Wide Enough to Dream

Artist Fadi chose to paint something that resembles the life children are waiting for;
not war as it is, but the world as it should be.

In this visual work, a child stands before a vast field, holding his small colors, as if trying to build through imagination a place that feels safer and more peaceful, far from fear and war.

“A Sky Wide Enough for Dreams”
is a visual work that reflects on childhood as a space of hope, not only as victimhood.

 
A child draws the age he is waiting for.
A life without wars,
A road that never passes through fear.
He draws a wide field,
A small house at the edge of wheat,
A sky wide enough to dream.
Not just a dream —
He is painting a life he has not yet lived.
As if, with color alone,
he is trying to convince the world that peace is still possible.
