A Grain Of Sand

Video Design for A Grain of Sand on its UK tour, a one-woman show following Renad, a young girl searching for her family across Gaza, blending Palestinian folklore with verbatim testimonies from children living through the war. The video drew on the textures of Gaza to evoke the feeling of the place rather than render it photographically, with traditional Palestinian tatreez embroidery worked into the visual language.
