Tears over Gaza
Tears over Gaza is my response to the 2014 concentrated attacks on Gaza by the Israeli forces. The couched stitching went by the name 'Almond Branch' in parts of Palestine, but is known as 'Tears' in Gaza. The fabric on which I worked is a created fabric using photographs of the beach in Gaza at sunset (thank you, National Geographic) broken down using the momigami technique and combined with other papers, gauze, ribbon and muslin.
