Various techniques and materials were utilized as well as points of reference, from patterned landscape drawings inspired by archival photographs of pre-1948 Palestine, to embroidery pieces that play with traditional cross-stitching known as Tatreez, to charcoal rubbings. Bringing together the work in this exhibition to showcase the complexities of being a diasporic Palestinian while seeking a balance between upholding and challenging these culturally rich traditions
