The act is an audio-visual interpretation of poet Mahmoud Darwish’s prose A Memory for Forgetfulness, in which the author vividly relates an account of a day amid the Israeli invasion and siege of Lebanon in 1982 that came to be known as ‘Hiroshima Day’. The visual component of the act consisted of a selection of materials curated from the Palestinian Museum Digital Archive by Adele Jarrar. |
