Reclaiming Our Image through Muralism and Photograpahy

SEE EVENT DETAILS
On Friday, February 9, 6pm - 9pm, join Palestinian artists Lara Aburamadan, Chris Gazaleh, and Roula Seikaly for a free, all ages film screening, conversation, and artwork presentation.

Reclaiming Our Image through Muralism and Photography is presented by SOMArts in collaboration with Bay Area Palestinian artists. This program is intended to affirm the role of the arts in collective liberation.

Reel Bad Arabs: How Hollywood Vilifies a People (Sut Jhally, 2006) serves as a starting point to understand how mainstream media stereotypes Arabs, normalizes racial prejudice, and influences domestic and international policy. Lara Aburamadan's Remains a Memory (2024), combines video clips of Palestinian expression, creativity, play, and rest amidst the Israeli occupation.

Lara, Chris, and Roula discuss the power of imagery and the ways their creative practices are rooted in humanizing Palestinian people. How do we tell our own stories? How do we tell people who we are?
