This week we explore the art and political history of embroidery in Palestine. Called tatreez in Arabic, the practice of embroidery has served as a form of communication between women for centuries across the region. Guest curator of the MoMu Antwerp exhibition Embroidering Palestine, Rachel Dedman, and Palestinian embroiderer, Fatima Abbadi, join us to speak about the language of tatreez.
