Somoud In Dark Times stirs questions that have long framed photographic discourse: can photographs capture the full horror of atrocity? How does text shape our perception of these images and what language is used to describe atrocity? Is it genocide, or acts of genocide? Palestinians in Gaza, the Occupied West Bank, and throughout the global diaspora know that they are living through or are witnessing genocide–and domocide, the intentional and widespread destruction of housing.
Dr. Rehab Nazzal is a Palestinian visual artist and educator who lives between the Occupied West Bank and Montreal. Her practice prioritizes the effects of settler-colonial violence on the minds and bodies of colonized people, on all forms of life, and on the land. Before and since the Gaza Genocide began on October 8, 2023, Nazzal has photographed fellow West Bank residents. Shared on Instagram, despite the platform’s racist censorship of support for Palestinians, the photographs reflect kinship, solidarity, and ﺻﻤﻮد (soumoud), resilience.”
