In Stitching Palestine, twelve Palestinian women living in Lebanon, Jordan and Palestine, draw upon the ancient and enduring art of Palestinian embroidery to share stories about their identities, tales of resistance and memories of their homeland. As lawyers, artists, housewives, activists, architects and politicians each recount their own distinctly personal stories, a collective embroidery begins to take shape, linking one woman to another.
After our in-house screening of the film, we will be joined by special guest Rachel Dedman, who will expand upon the significance of Palestinian embroidery as a form of resistance, both historically and in the present day. Rachel is a curator, writer and art historian. She recently curated the exhibition ‘Material Power: Palestinian Embroidery’ - the first major exhibition of Palestinian embroidery in the UK for over 30 years - for Kettles Yard, Cambridge, and The Whitworth, Manchester (2023-2024). Since 2019, Rachel has also been the Jameel Curator of Contemporary Art from the Middle East at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London.
