On January 31st, we hosted a Maktaba Moment with artist Sabri Sundos. The event was comprised of a short artist talk by Sundos followed by a tatreez workshop.
ABOUT SABRI SUNDOS:
Sundos is a Palestinian American painter and textile artist. Rooted in his personal experience being raised in the diaspora, Sundos explores themes of identity, labor and time. Through the merging of traditional craft and cultural iconography his work emphasizes the importance of agency & human touch, highlighting the inherent tactile nature of art-making as a means of reclaiming and preserving heritage.
Sundos creates work that continues to foster dialogue around tradition, memory, and an undying hope for the future.
