Gulf Today | Timeless stitches, timely show: Maraya wraps up Palestine embroidery showcase

Muhammad Yusuf, Gulf Today
"Maraya Art Centre, Al Qasba, Sharjah, has just brought the curtains down on SILA. All That Is Left to You, a landmark exhibition dedicated to the cultural language of Palestinian embroidery, tatreez. Curated by Cima Azzam (Maraya Art Centre), Noor Suhail (1971 – Design Space), and Rula Alami, Founder of SILA exhibition series, it brought together twenty-five contemporary artists and designers."
 
"Samar Hijazi’s Intricacies of Wholeness was a constellation of stitched panels, each one interdependent. Her installation Transgressed Boundaries spoke of the links between self and collective, between what is fixed and what moves."
