Hamabul collective

There is no embassy of Iran in Jerusalem. We ask why. We are a group of artists living and creating in Jerusalem, trying to create a new reality. one which we can identify with. A reality of dialogue between the people, not dominated by mass media and governments. The Embassy as we imagine it will be functioning as a bridge for trading ideas, dreams and giving silent voices a sound through art.

Everyone

Rectification of names "If language is not correct, then what is said is not what is meant; if what is said is not what is meant, then what must be done remains undone; if this remains undone, morals and art will deteriorate; if justice goes astray, the people will stand about in helpless confusion. Hence there must be no arbitrariness in what is said. This matters above everything." Confucius
