More info

Emily Jacir’s works are anchored in real histories and draw on archival and historical research as much as subjective or biographical narratives. They lend form to stories that have been reduced to silence, focusing on exchange, translation, resistance, and movement.

Based in Rome and Palestine, the artist questions the complex relationship between Europe and the countries around the Mediterranean through film, video, photography, sculpture, and performance. In 2014 Emily Jacir founded the Dar Yusuf Nasri Jacir for Art and Research, a residency and artistic and educational research space located in her family home in Bethlehem.
