Notes for a Guest Book
2023
Exhibition: Installation, photography, writing
This installation brings together fragments of images and texts which centre and consider a hotel as an omnipresent spectre always appearing as a witness, attesting to moments of gathering, remembering, collective action, celebration, war, and exile. Referencing documents from the Palestinian Museum Digital Archive, the collected materials act as visual records documenting moments from the history of Palestineβs colonisation and articulating alternative voices of resistance.
Notes for a Guest Book is an installation and foreword for an artist book following a residency at the Ace Hotel Toronto and Images FestivalArtist-in-Residence 2023-2024.
