On view at The Jerusalem Fund Galleryfor Whispers of Palestine photographs by Bassima Mustafa
Free
Friday, August 12th - September 23rd
Through her photographs, Bassima Mustafa shows us Palestine through a more personal lens. Now based in New Jersey, Mustafa was born in Amman, Jordan to Palestinian parents who were refugees after the 1967 Six Day War. It’s her belief that history is best viewed from a personal perspective, and individual stories add richness to a people’s collective history. Her photos, in black and white, and in color on canvas, share secret images of family, hidden among the olive trees and arches of her home.
