We are delighted to invite you to join us for the final event of artist-researcher Inas Halabi’s residency. The two-month residency was a collaboration between ReCNTR and 1646. During this final event Inas will share aspects from her ongoing research and work for her film The Right of Return.
Inas’ research focuses on the erasure of the remains of demolished Palestinian villages, that have now been turned into Israeli national parks or nature reserves. She explores how the planting of pine trees serves as another means of confiscating land and preventing the return of the original inhabitants, and the invisible violence that continues to occur in each location as the foreign trees grow. During the event, Inas will be presenting elements from this current film project and recent research, including sound recordings from the locations of demolished Palestinian villages that have now been turned into Israeli national parks or nature reserves.
