The Palestinian Museum is launching a 360-degree digital version of its previous exhibition, Intimate Terrains: Representations of a Disappearing Landscape. This will allow the general public to experience the largest exhibition of Palestinian art to be organised for the public. The digital exhibition will be accompanied by a virtual guided tour led by the exhibition's curator, Dr Tina Sherwell. All those interested will be able to visit the exhibition at any time through the Museum's website.
Intimate Terrains was held between April 2019 - January 2020. The exhibition explored the shifting representations of landscapes among Palestinian artists through a collection of artworks produced from the 1930s to the present day by 36 Palestinian artists, both in Palestine and the diaspora. This collection allows us to examine the relationship we have with place and geographical location through the themes of erasure, fragmentation, distance, and belonging
