Информация

Samar Hussaini’s work is deeply rooted in her Palestinian heritage and culture, blending mixed-media fine arts with traditional Palestinian embroidery known as tatreez. Born in the US, she graduated with a BFA in Art History and Studio Arts from the University of Maryland before pursuing a Master's degree in communication design from Pratt Institute in New York.

Her artistic practice is colourful and contemporary, whilst still paying homage to the creativity of her homeland. Through stitched together paintings, sculptures and ready-to-wear garments, her multi-disciplinary approach speaks to the complexities of identity through the use of the traditional tatreez embroidery that has different patterns and designs for different regions of Palestine. Hussaini modernizes this stunning embroidery to represent the identity of those living in the diaspora, symbolizing new Palestinian identities.

In 2022, Hussaini achieved international acclaim for her participation in the Venice Biennale collateral group exhibit ‘From Palestine with Love’, sponsored by the Palestine Museum, with a dress-based installation featuring hand-dyed abayas with embroidery in modern colours and designs.
