Abstract
The poster for the performance ‘Windows of Palestine,’ designed in collaboration with Christopher Nansen captures the essence of the performance. This series transforms architectural elements into storytellers, reflecting the Palestinian urban struggle under military occupation. The performance featured poetry of my original work as well as Abigail Spence's response to Tasneems's story, a Dental student displaced in Gaza, resulting in a poster design by Chris and script by Unitec MARCH (prof) Alumni Abigail Spence that conveys the emotional depth, and narrative strength of the performance. The poster's creation was an iterative process, with Chris and I experimenting with various elements inclduing using the most updated maps to achieve the needed impact that relates to this architectural-poetic performance, ultimately leading to a visually compelling representation that resonated with the NZ Eid Day organizers and audience alike.
