The Palestinian Nakba Revival 1948 Series

Oil on canvas / figurative works (2020)

The Palestinian Nakba Revival Series revisits the events of 1948 not as a distant historical moment, but as an ongoing condition that continues to shape identity, memory, and displacement. The series challenges linear historical narratives by presenting the Nakba as a lived and inherited experience.

Through figurative and symbolic elements, the works explore loss, continuity, and the persistence of memory across generations. Forms often appear fragmented or unresolved, reflecting the incomplete nature of return, justice, and historical closure.

Rather than functioning as documentation, the series acts as a revival—reasserting presence, memory, and cultural continuity through contemporary artistic language.
