Dafna’s Story: Courage in the Face of Conflict
Dafna, a 33-year-old israeli woman, grew up with a constant awareness of danger, as terror attacks were a part of her early memories. This sense of vigilance became second nature, influencing her daily life and decisions. On October 7th 2023, Dafna and her husband woke to air raid sirens in Tel Aviv. Without a safe room in their apartment, they took shelter in the building’s staircase and, upon realizing the severity of the situation, decided to leave the city. They fled to a safer area, though it was difficult to stay focused on daily tasks amid the emotional toll.
Eventually, Dafna and her husband made the hard decision to leave Israel temporarily and move to Spain. Adapting to life abroad was challenging, as they remained on edge and were reminded of past trauma by everyday sounds. Dafna also encountered anti-Semitic and anti-Israel sentiment, which compounded her sense of isolation. She reflects on her complex identity as a proud Jewish Israeli, wishing for a world where she could openly share her background without fear.
Owning Diaspora serves as a poignant reminder of the strength and courage inherent in overcoming trauma and displacement. Dafna’s story reflects the universal themes of identity, belonging, and the longing for a world where one can openly embrace their heritage without fear. This artwork stands as a symbol of resilience and the ongoing search for safety and acceptance.

It adds depth and meaning to any space, making it a valuable addition to your home or office.
