About this event

Gilboa Iris (or Iris haynei) is often seen as the national flower of Palestine, symbolizing endurance and the connection between the people and their land.

By introducing to his work this symbolic flower struggling to survive in its war-torn habitat, Graham makes us question ourselves. “The painting becomes a site of layered grief – not only for human lives, but for the erasure of culture, memory and ecology. It asks us to hold all of this at once. And yet, within that act of holding, it also sows a new world of remembering, resisting and imagining otherwise”.(Sean Kissane)
