Khalil Ghaith is a visual artist who documents the long war on the Gaza Strip. His paintings show the suffering of Palestinian refugees and reflect their dreams of returning to their homeland, Palestine.

The keys to old houses are one of the recurring details in his paintings, which remind of the homes that the refugees left behind, reminding the descending generations in the camp of the dream of return. The paintings also contain numerous images of fighters, prisoners, and Palestinian nature as he imagined it before the Nakba.
