The sessions will trace the evolution of Tatreez from early village customs to its role as a medium of political expression among Palestinian women who advanced community leadership initiatives during the Intifada. The workshop will also address current practices, digital preservation, and the symbolism of Tatreez as an embodiment of love and resilience, carrying forward Palestinian women’s matriarchal insistence on memory.

The collaborative project The Broken Pitcher by Natascha Sadr Haghighian, Marina Christodoulidou and Peter Eramian traces the effects of financialisation and austerity by looking at the banking system and the potentials for changing the script of interacting with it. At de Appel the project takes a multi-fold formation: a one-to-one scale model of a bank room that functions both as an exhibition space and a film set.
