'Echo of Lost Innocence,' a powerful art installation, opened at Barahat Msheireb in Msheireb Downtown Doha. Created by artist Bachir Mohammad, the exhibition features 15,000 teddy bears, each symbolising a child affected by conflict. This striking visual display serves as a strong reminder of the innocent lives impacted by war, with each bear wearing a black T-shirt bearing the message: 'I'm not just a number. I'm human. With an identity. With a homeland. I am Palestine.'

Hosted by Msheireb Properties in collaboration with Qatar Charity, the installation aims to raise awareness and inspire action on pressing humanitarian issues. Open to the public from September 16-26, 2024, daily from 4:00 PM to 10:00 PM with free admission, 'Echo of Lost Innocence' also speaks to the role of art in addressing global issues and Qatar's commitment to supporting humanitarian causes through cultural expression.
