Their embroidery, or \u003cem\u003etatreez\u003c\/em\u003e, inspired hundreds of artists who reinterpreted and transformed it into a symbol of Palestinian identity, steadfastness and resistance.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eNarrative Threads\u003c\/em\u003e celebrates the immense beauty and significance of Palestinian embroidery in contemporary art. Joanna Barakat documents and features more than 200 works by twenty-four established and emerging artists, who incorporate the motifs and symbolism of \u003cem\u003etatreez\u003c\/em\u003e across diverse media – from painting, sculpture and textile to film, photography and street art. While some artists preserve traditional forms, others transform \u003cem\u003etatreez\u003c\/em\u003e to explore themes of displacement, resilience and belonging.
