I didn’t lose, I gave” – Alon Kaminer"

A life-size portrait of a Navy soldier who was severely wounded on October 14, 2023. Alon faces unimaginable challenges each day—confronting death and choosing life. Despite losing an eye, a leg, and both hands, he looks at the viewer with a radiant smile, full of life, joy, and wholeness. His prosthetic enables him to stand tall. Painted across three canvases to reflect both fragility and completeness, the color palette is drawn from dawn—the darkest moment before light—symbolizing the tension between tragedy and triumph, broken body and resilient spirit.
