Mohammed and the X-ray Tech
Acrylic on canvas, 36 x 60 inches, 2008-09
Mohammed (left) and MCPL Francois Theriault

Mohammed was injured in an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) incident and suffered a fractured vertebrae. I sketched him several times. Although immobile and unable to speak due to his injuries, he emanated both grace and dignity.

Sacred
by Moya Pacey. 2014
School of Music poet, Canberra, Australia
in response to: Mohammed and the X-ray Tech,

The medics have haloed Mohammed’s head.
Eyes closed, he lies still as a marble saint

in a medieval cathedral.
Arms outstretched, the technician steadies

a metal plate ready for the X-ray photograph
eyes intent on the large lamp

lighting upon Mohammed’s torso.
All life is sacred

whether you are friend or foe,
in the field hospital at Kandahar.
