Return of the Soul - The Nakbah Project

Comments & reviews (0)

Featuring thousands of tiny figures held in limbo, this installation by Jane Frere is the outcome of an 8-month residency in East Jerusalem. The work is sombre reflection upon the consequences of a never-to-be-forgotten tragedy in Europe that cast the Palestinian people into purgatory, sowing the seeds of perpetual unrest in the Middle East. 'Part of the Edinburgh Art Festival'
