Epiphany_2023

Epiphany is a Christian holiday celebrated in Palestine through a tradition known as β€œThe Blessing of the Waters,” in which men and boys participate in a competition where a priest throws a cross into the waters of Jaffa Harbor.

The work investigates the complex relationship between the Palestinian residents of Jaffa and the sea, a place that holds both nostalgia and a constant reminder of exile and trauma.
