This conversation traces the work of Yura Collective in producing and documenting Palestinian visual narratives through the lives, places, and everyday details that often remain outside dominant accounts. Through collaborative projects with Palestinian photographers, filmmakers, and visual artists, including Untold Palestine, We Are Not Numbers, and Gaza, My Love, from which a video work is presented as part of the exhibition In That Same Hour. Yura brings together multimedia practice and visual storytelling to counter the ways Palestinian life is often flattened, sidelined and abstracted.

The conversation will give particular attention to a film by Salama Younes, part of Gaza, My Love and on view in In That Same Hour, presenting aerial footage of Gaza filmed in the period immediately before the genocide.

The conversation will be held in Arabic.
