Press/Media: Other
This evening will be a celebration of Raja's life’s work and will include images, video and film footage of the Palestinian landscape through which he has walked all his life. In a year in which we explore the theme of Land, tonight could not be more relevant.
The evening will be moderated by Madeline-Sophie Abbas, Senior Lecturer in Sociology (Race and Anti-Racism) at Lancaster University. Abbas will bring up some of the core themes within this body of work, such as walking and writing as a means of documenting changes to accessing and enjoying the (disappearing) beauty of the Palestinian landscape and rediscovering a hidden history of what remains.
