Description

Performance "Tree of Wishes"

The occupying power has great effects reflected in the daily suffering of our souls and bodies; a fence, a checkpoint, a curfew, a barrier, a wall. This occupation has many faces; Women is an entity occupied intellectually and physically, so that even man may not believe in this kind of occupation because it is absurd to occupy something that you possessed,

If freedom is the opposite of the occupation, women face a political enemy occupying their homeland and social reality occupies their mind and body. There can be no separation between both occupations; there are number of definitions but occupation is the same, maybe one does not need a spot to live on.

Indications of Loss and Hope

The death and destruction brought upon the Palestinians during the second Intifada and during the Israeli incursions after the year 2000, had also impacted the representation of women in art, where images of loss and agony prevailed. Other works however transcended that sense of loss, demonstrating signs of hope, energy and continued defiance.
