At the Seams A Political History of Palestinian Embroidery (Exhibition Catalogue)

Driven by archival and academic research, primary fieldwork, and interviews with embroiders across Palestine, Lebanon, and Jordan, At the Seams hopes to shed new light on embroidery from Palestine, exploring its history and contemporary significance side by side. Clothing is made by the hands to be felt on the body in the most intimate of ways, but has at the same time the ability to reflect, extend and manifest political realities and social urgencies.
