Sea Package.
Ayed Arafah
|
Because we are from the West Bank, we miss the sea and cannot reach it because of the occupation…I have the right to lie on the sand of the beach, to fish, to walk around the harbor and to listen to the sea gulls. I have the right to hear the sound of the waves. The sea is not far; I saw it from Ein Misbah in Ramallah on a clear day… I thought of reaching the sea in my own way. I thought of making a temporary sea. I asked my friends to bring sea water from wherever they are and to send it to Palestine. And I put the water they sent in a big bag, which I called “Sea Package”… A sea that carries no waves, no port, no beach… A sea that does not have the rest of the details as it is only a mere package that perhaps might carry me to the real sea... One day.
