This print features Once Was Known 8, an emotionally resonant acrylic canvas by Palestinian artist Monther Jawabreh, painted in 2012 as part of his Once Was Known series. Born in 1976 in Al‑Arroub refugee camp, Jawabreh’s work explores memory, resistance, and identity through experimental reconstructions and symbolic imagery.
A lone figure stands draped in a bold red dress and traditional kuffiyah, embodying quiet dignity and defiance. The textured backdrop suggests erased stories and layered resistance.
Kuffiyah holds full rights to produce and sell these high‑quality prints. A portion of every sale is directed back to Monther Jawabreh and Bab al‑Deir Art Gallery, anchoring this artwork in its authentic cultural context ʻand supporting Palestinian creative institutions.
