I remember how the memory of my mother’s special curry of sun-dried fish used to haunt me long after her death, as though the absence of this exotic dish from the family menu made her death more real than anything else about her. - Temsula Ao

Tatreez (Arabic: تطريز) is a type of traditional Palestinian embroidery. Tatreez uses traditional cross-stitch embroidery and is practiced largely among women. The craft was originally practiced in rural areas of Palestine, but is now common across the Palestinian diaspora. Historically, each village in Palestine had their own tatreez patterns. The landscape was a major source of inspiration for the patterns and motifs, which speaks to the variation in style that was common to see among all of the different tatreez expressions that were particular to each Palestinian village. In the early origin of tatreez, the landscape was a major source of inspiration for Palestinian women in designing many patterns and motifs. This speaks to the variation in style that was common to see among all of the different tatreez expressions that were particular to each Palestinian village.
After the violent displacement and dispossession of Palestinians in 1948, people were living together in refugee camps. The different styles of tatreez became less distinct and have continued to evolve with the diaspora. Following 1948, tatreez evolved to reflect the experiences of Palestinians. Palestinian women began to incorporate the Palestinian flag and its colors into their tatreez as a means of resistance to the occupation of Palestine. Consequently, tatreez became an expression of the identity, heritage and resistance of Palestinian women and their dedication to preserve their ancient culture.

Some WIPs for a project I'm working on now. Drawing children during these times where they are being slaughtered en mass in another part of the world is a very unsettling experience. These drafts took me a week to make.
Never again should be about mass deaths, universally. No exceptions!

Art Scene India- October 2014 Gond Art
Gond art is a folk art form created by the people of the Gond tribe in Madhya Pradesh in India. The Gonds believe that viewing good images brought in good luck, and the creation of images is done with the reverence of sacred worship. The Gond people were initially a foraging community and their life was centered around the forests, hence nature and wildlife motifs are most common. The Gond art style is characterized by the use of lines, dots and dashes, floral and nature inspired shapes and patterns like the ones resembling fish scales, drops of water and seed shapes. The sense of movement is established through the curves and strokes of the lines. Red, blue, yellow, and white are the colours most commonly used. These paints are usually derived and extracted from organic sources such as coloured soil, flowers, plant leaves and sap, charcoal, etc.
