Fourth Trail in Jericho – Cities Exhibition – Fourth Edition / Manteq al-Tayr

Birzeit University Museum continued Jericho’s five trial with artist Sarah Pedington. She was inspired by the idea of the trial from Sufi poetry in book titled "Birds logic" by Farid al-Din Attar. The trial began in Al-Auja region moving towards the mountain and the channel there, including a presentation by Ashtar Theatre artists who wore turbans like different kind of birds. This sheds light on the endangered organisms and biological diversity in Jericho, and highlighted the poetic journey of birds during the trial, followed by kitting kites and eating dinner  then moving to Ramallah.
