THE HELL OF A BOILING RED
The Syrian war led the artist George Kubresli to take the tragedy of the war as his subject. In this research, George addresses the tragedy that the Syrians experience by exploring the depths of the soul to understand the enormous distortions that humans suffer from in their various experiences during war. He focuses on how the act of war shows its true form through facial expressions, by mixing the inner deformities of humans with the distortions that have formed in their bodies. In the view of the artist, we cannot see real tragedy only through forms. However, in order to be able to see tragedy at all, one must understand what humans suffer so deeply, and link it with what is external, to reach the true feeling of the horror. The role of nature in the magnitude of this human tragedy is part of the shadow of war. Nature plays a major role in supporting the tragic effects that war has on the human beings who live in the swamps of war. If we look at the role of nature in the pre-war phase and how it interacts with humans, we see that its role is supportive of beautifying life. Then, in a time of war, it takes on a completely different character, so the winter and summer play a major role in increasing the suffering of human beings. Winter does not take into account the impact on persons who have lost shelter or who are trying to seek refuge across the sea or land in neighboring countries to save their lives: there are those who are swallowed by marine storms and are buried in the bottom of the sea. When the summer hits with its high temperatures, it inflicts on refugees who do not have the most basic needs for living, conditions such as sunstroke, skin diseases, Meningitis and many more afflictions, as if nature is now the enemy, too.
