Manifesto - Intifadart

Translation / Interpretation / Caption Text / Source
Artists' Statement:The original map of Palestine is one of the most admired symbols in the modern history of Palestine. It represents the time when Palestine was whole. This map exists in every Palestinian's mind and is recognized whenever seen by a Palestinian.This is why I chose this map to be the structure of Intifadart's manifesto, it visually represents Palestine and instantly connect with every Palestinian that lays his/her eye onto it. The lyrics of the manifesto are reshaped and repositioned to create this visualization of the map of Palestine.

Hi Dan,
I went over the whole collection, I loved it! Its complete, they were seven posters in total.
However, in the manifesto, I think you left a little bit of text at the end of the statement.
