Nizar’s main artwork focuses on the visual atrocities he has seen since the conflict began in 2011.
Speaking to the BBC, he said: “I am a human before anything else. The conflict has caused me a lot of pain and I sometimes can’t sleep at night.”
“My only consolation is the work I do and therefore I don’t see it as a source of revenue. It is pure passion for stone art. I want to communicate human emotions that people everywhere in the world share, such as love, hope, and sadness.”
He added: “When I saw all these families being forced to leave their homes, I felt pain. Why should anyone be forced to leave their home?”
