Cbloxx brings back the heart of the Picts with epic mural in Aberdeen
Cbloxx is a muralist from Huddersfield whose work plays with ideas centring around community and history. Now painting as a solo artist, previously @cbloxx has created work as one half of the street art duo 'Nomad Clan'. Their mural in Aberdeen for the Nuart festival was a stand out. On the back of the old John Lewis it shows a face emerging out of rock. It is a piece that references the collective memory of our ancestors. A reminder that we are all the product of those who have gone before.

    She speaks as if the holding of hostages is legitimate, & are not heinous ongoing war crimes ... She speaks as if using hostages as bargaining chips is legitimate, & are not ongoing gross violations of several human rights ... She speaks as if the use of civilians as human shields is legitimate war strategy, & not ongoing war crimes ... She speaks as if the use of civilian spaces for military operations is legitimate military strategy, & not ongoing war crimes ... She speaks as if Hamas has a legitimate right to self-defense by any possible means, as if the value of Hamas leaders weigh more than the lives of innocent hostages & Palestinian civilians ...

    • @TheProphetofLogic
      @TheProphetofLogic 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      What do you think about the under the table deals made between Netanyahu and Hamas and the very stow response to a planned attack that IDF clearly allowed to happen, OTHERWISE, there wouldn't be any hostages in the first place. and what do you think about the Hannibal directive and the IDF intentionally bombing the hell out of locations believed to be holding said hostages????🤔 Get off your high horse, What do YOU think about the Racism and pedophilia in the Talmud? Do you think people who read the Talmud should be controlling the freedom of speech??? I'm a Jew and I say, F Zionists, free the world!!! People are waking up, You can see the trends shifting in the comments. You won't be able to black ball everyone.
