Palestine Auction (not Palestine Action)

Not complicit in genocide, doing what I can with what I have. The thresholds of recklessness and objective reasonableness are evolving.

About this work

Palestine Auction is a bold activist artwork presented as a richly ornamented credit note. The central image places the Dome of the Rock beneath a bright sky while a white dove flies forward with an olive branch, framing Palestine through peace, memory and sacred geography.

Around the central scene, the artwork uses the structure of money: a serial number, denomination marks, security-strip styling, decorative engraving, a large £10 credit panel and a promo-code banner. These commercial details are deliberately repurposed into political language, making the piece feel like a coupon from a future where ethics finally interrupts business as usual.

Created as collectible investment art, this canvas sits between protest poster, fantasy banknote and solidarity object. It speaks to collectors interested in Palestinian art, anti-war art, political pop art, activist design and future currency aesthetics, while carrying the simple emotional charge of doing what one can with what one has.

Palestine Auction turns a discount credit into a political banknote, using the language of currency, coupons and promotional codes to make a direct moral statement. The piece shows Palestine in English and Arabic, a dove carrying an olive branch, the Dome of the Rock, an ancient olive tree and a sweeping flag-colored wave across the lower edge.

The design is built like an ornate note of value: serial numbers, decorative borders, £10 credit typography, medallions, arabesque patterns and a promo code marked UPRISING. Its message is blunt and memorable: “because stopping the bombs is better than profiteering from war crimes.”

As investment art, the artwork combines protest art, future money, anti-war symbolism and Palestinian solidarity into one collectible visual object. It is a canvas for people who want art that does not hide from history, turning everyday commerce into a reminder that value can also mean conscience, action and refusal.
