Palestinian Intifada Thobe Poster
Out of stock
High-resolution print of an original Watan art piece.
The design of this Qabbeh was sourced from a piece in Widad Kawar's sizable Middle East costume collection (housed at the Tiraz Centre in Amman). The thobe is named an "Intifada Dress"; at the time of the 1st Intifada, women sewed the colors of the Palestinian flag into their dresses in response to Israeli confiscation of Palestinian flags. On multiple levels, the choices of what we wear is political. But the political is rarely so overt as it is in the Intifada dress. Long live.

“Exile is strangely compelling to think about but terrible to experience. It is the unhealable rift forced between a human being and a native place, between the self and its true home: its essential sadness can never be surmounted. -Edward Said”
”للمنفى شجن دفين لا يمكن التغلب عليه البتة ، فهو ينبع من الواقع الأساسي للمنفي، من بين الذات وموطنها.“
