The Palestinian Artists’ Consortium cordially invites you to a special webinar on Sunday, August 4th at noon (Washington DC Time, 7:00 PM Jerusalem Time.) This event, titled "Art, Activism, and Censorship: Navigating Art Spaces for an Indigenous Artist," promises to be an enlightening and thought-provoking discussion.
We are honored to feature two distinguished artists:
Danielle SeeWalker, a Native American artist from North Dakota, based in Denver Colorado, whose mixed media works integrate traditional Native American materials, and storytelling. Danielle's art redirects the narrative toward an accurate and insightful representation of contemporary Native America while acknowledging historical events. Her recent painting. “G is for Genocide,” in support of Palestine has erupted in serious discussion in the Town of Vail -Colorado, which later called for the artist’s residency to be canceled.
Yaqeen Yamani, is a new member of the Consortium and a Palestinian artist from Jericho, with a BA in Media Studies & Film from Al-Quds Bard College, and an MFA in Photography from Tyler School of Art at Temple University. Her practice includes photography, video, and printmaking, focusing on themes of identity, rage, and grief through material experimentation. Yaqeen’s work explores resistance, intervention, disruption, and reclamation.
