Palestinian balance artist Mohammed al-Shinbari, 26, enjoys practicing balance amid the rubble of the houses destroyed by Israeli airstrikes during the May conflict in the northern Gaza Strip town of Beit Hanoun.

Al-Shinbari believes that focus, calmness and patience are the basics of mastering the art of balance, but keeping the balance of mind at the site of war destruction could be more challenging.
