PALESTINIAN artist Malak Mattar has called for protests against decisions by France and Britain to refuse her a visa to attend exhibitions of her own work.
The Gazan artist said on Monday the decisions showed “that the hatred of Palestinians and the ambition to keep us from travelling and living normal lives is shared by more than just Israel.”
Ms Mattar’s work has been exhibited in a number of countries across the world, including India and the US, but she hasn’t been able to see her own work outside Palestine.
