Palestinian graffiti artist Belal Khaled who has made a mark in the city of Gaza, with his impeccable designs and intricate Arabic calligraphy, has now chosen explosive material as his canvas.

Khaled who is known for his effortless artwork in the strip, aims to send a message across the world in support of the innocent Palestinian lives lost in the airstrikes.

 Palestinians look at the drawings by artist Bilal Khaled.

Children and people gather around the artist as he does designs on the unexploded materials in the shattered strip of Gaza.

Khaled says his work is not meant to convey any political message, or to make money.

He only wants to send a message of peace.

The artist shared a few images of him doing the artwork and captioned it saying 'In Gaza, we create art from the middle of death."

In his eclectic choice of objects and backgrounds, his calligraphic graffiti is brightening up the densely populated, impoverished Palestinian enclave of 1.95 million people.
