Embroidered Landscapes from Artist Jordan Nassar

Jordan Nassar is a Palestinian artist who creates embroidered landscapes which are framed by, and built up through, repeating patterns adapted from traditional Palestinian motifs. I love the way he utilizes such a classic medium to tell these stories of places through such delicate, colorful means. I would highly recommend reading his interview in BOMB Magazine which explains the duality of identity he experiences and how the manifests in his work, which is extremely interesting, especially with everything happening in the world right now.
