Notlar	Drawing of a Palestinian child leaning against a wall after surgery wearing a white hospital gown and with a scar on her forehead. "She is twelve years old. She was injured by a rubber bullet in her head while she was trying to bring her little brother in from the street. She was operated on to remove the bullet from her forehead, and her condition is excellent." -- Provided by the artist. \| "Ameena. I had been drawing at night and was about to leave, when the neurosurgeon Dr. Dajani saw me on the stairs and told me that a little girl had been shot in Nablus, and he wanted me to draw the operation. By the time I was dressed in greens and mask to go into the operations room, they had finished shaving off all her thick black hair. I was shown the Z-rays of her skull, already tender and distended from the impact, with the bullet black and menacing inside the frontal bone. There she lay with a dark red hole in her forehead. The shee had slid and I could see one plump shoulder and an unformed breast, and, nearest to me, two childish feet with grubby toes. The hole was perfectly round. They held the skin back with what looked like little prolonged forks. Under the brilliant lamps the bullet, eased carefully out, looked very black, as if it had pulled all the world's light into it, and extinguished it. Dr. Dajani ran over with it and put it in my hand. "Show this to people wherever you exhibit your pictures. Show them what is being done to our children."" -- Provided by the artist. \| Text in Arabic and English on front and reverse of drawing. \| Heather 21/02/89 (signed and dated bottom right).
