Holy Land by Bashar Alhroub
Presenting Holy Land. Bashar Alhroub (b. Jerusalem, 1978) is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice reflects on place, identity, and belonging within the context of Palestine’s political and emotional landscape. Rooted in cultural memory, Alhroub often incorporates iconic Palestinian symbols in his work—emblems of resilience and history. This piece centers around Masjid Al Aqsa, using its form as a powerful symbol that evokes collective heritage and spiritual endurance. The circular composition draws attention and signals the significance of Masjid Al Aqsa as a powerful symbol of Palestinian identity, religion and history amid ongoing occupation and displacement.
