Bassima Mustafa
The history of Palestine is interwoven with the land and architecture. They are as integral to understanding Palestine, as are the people of this beautiful homeland. Through photo images of the land, architecture and the Palestinian people, Bassima Mustafa presents “Whispers of Palestine.” Inspiration for this exhibit came from her travels in Palestine with her mother during the summer of 2004. Cool olive groves on a hot summer day, a perfect exhibition for a hot August. New Jersey photographer Mustafa’s “Whispers of Palestine” revisits her family’s olive groves, to trace Palestine through its land and architecture, which she feels are integral to understanding the country and its history.
This exhibit is dedicated to the memory of her mother, Amnah Mustafa.
