Remembering Palestinian Heritage through Postcards
Postcards from Back Home is a tribute to Palestinian history, culture and ancestry. Many Palestinians live abroad and can often feel disconnected from their land and heritage. Often times, Palestinian families have their own family photographs, but they are rarely shared or celebrated.
As a second generation Palestinian myself with little ability to visit my homeland, much of my design work is inspired by my strong connection with my heritage.
Photographs of my ancestors well before myself and my parents help me feel connected with my heritage and culture. It reminds me of my own family's history and memories. Sharing these with the broader community is my contribution to keeping our fruitful histories, cultural nostalgia and stories alive.
