- Description
- Fatin, a twelve-year-old Iraqi girl, stands amid rubble, following the bombing of Baghdad by coalition forces during the Iraq war. When Australian artist George Gittoes met her in April 2003, she told him that twenty-seven members of her extended family had died in the bombing of their poor area of Baghdad. As the sole surviving member of her family, she relied on the goodwill of neighbours to survive.
