Reimagining Tatreez — Stitching Land and Memory with Layal Bata
Craft Contemporary
Los Angeles CA, United States
Description
In this workshop, participants will explore tatreez, the traditional Palestinian cross-stitch embroidery, and the meaning it carries through its regional motifs and colors. Historically tied to specific villages, these patterns form a visual language connected to land, identity, and community. Through stitching a handkerchief-sized piece, participants will experiment with combining motifs and colors, reflecting how displacement and movement create new relationships between place and memory. Beginners welcome!
