During the past seven decades, Palestine has been sealed from the
Arab world and shattered into fragmented and coded areas: 1948
area, 1967 area, Jerusalem, West Bank, Gaza, and A, B and C areas
within the West Bank. Each area is ruled by different laws,
including different roads and permits that control the mobility of
Palestinians and privilege Jewish settlers. Driving in Palestine is
a research-creation project by acclaimed artist Rehab Nazzal, who
explores the visible indices of the politics of mobility that she
encountered firsthand while traversing the occupied West Bank
between 2010 and 2020. This photography book consists of 160 black
and white photographs, hand-drawn maps and critical essays in
Arabic and English by Palestinian and Canadian scholars and
artists. The photographs were all captured from moving vehicles on
the roads of the West Bank. They focus on Israel's architecture of
movement restrictions and surveillance structures that proliferate
in the West Bank, including the Apartheid Wall, segregation walls
surrounding illegal colonies, gates, fences, watchtowers,
roadblocks and military checkpoints among other obstacles to
freedom of movement.
