Artwork Highlights the Plight of Civilians in War Zones
September 17, 2023
Two pieces of art collide to make a powerful statement about war. In 1997, a sculpture of a three-legged Broken Chair was erected in Geneva, Switzerland. It was designed to raise awareness about landmines and the pain they inflict on civilians living in conflict zones. Now, an addition to that work has been added by Swiss-French artist SAYPE. SAYPE used chalk and coal to create a giant hand on the lawn near the United Nations ,where the Broken Chair sits.
