Much attention has been brought to the youth of the Arab Spring. But, Arab women in Palestine have been living not only behind hidden veil also within The Separation Wall. They have been long holding communities together and fighting steadfastly for their families and rights as a people. These portraits show their resilience and pride, celebrating their heritage while continuing the arduous struggle through the wave of changes. Through my lens, I have been able to document the intimate portraits in their natural state. The women in these photographs show wisdom, empowerment and dignity.
