Kirya Courts

My practice focuses on activism and education, particularly the ongoing issues in Palestine, which has been under Israeli occupation for over 50 years. This topic has been the main focus of my work as a Palestinian.

I strive to create tactility within my work, and I like to explore new methods within my practice. Recently, the art of tufting rugs. This is a process I wish to continue. I am comfortable working in 2D and 3D and enjoy bringing my 2D illustrations to life in the physical realm. I experiment with various methods, illustration, animation, and sculpture. I have always had an affinity for textiles and have been experimenting with visually communicating using the medium of yarn.
