Ground Truth. 2016-ongoing
Installation
An ongoing project that aims to provide historical and juridical evidence on behalf of communities in the illegalized Palestinian Bedouin villages, in the northern threshold of the Naqab desert. While forced physical displacement and illegalisation render these communities non-existent on maps and aerial imaging, state-led land works and afforestation transform and erase their land and material cultural remains.
Through a collaborative process of DIY aerial photography carried out with Public Lab, Zochrot and the local families of al-Araqib, a kind of “civic satellite” is formed, examining the case of the Al-Araqib village, which was demolished over 116 times in the past 60 years.
The project aims to document and collate disparate legal, historical and material evidence for the continuity of the sedentary presence of the Bedouin population on this land, and to trace its repeated displacement and destruction by Israeli government forces.
