Launch of "Puppets" Invisible Strings exhibition, which explores the vulnerability of the human condition in an age marked by psychological fragility. In this exhibition, Shihab creates a visual trauma using artistic elements to forcefully engage the audience, making them feel the invisible strings that control them, and encouraging them to break free. Through a unique blend of abstraction and realism, Shihab’s work confronts emotional shocks that provoke deeper reflection.

This event, presented by Theatre for Everybody (Gaza) and Az Theatre (London), is a public conversation live from P21 Gallery and online, that presents testimonies, videos, live interventions, giving accounts of the return of the people of Gaza to their homes, both from the displaced tent encampments and from the prisons and torture centres in Israel. These will also include accounts of the consequences of the end of the ceasefire and of the escalation of the genocide in Gaza and the West Bank. 

Join us for a Bead Ring Workshop where you’ll learn to craft a stunning glass bead ring using the square stitch technique. In this session, you’ll also learn to read a pattern diagram, equipping you with skills to create intricate designs with ease and influenced by Palestinian Tatreez patterns. By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with a beautifully handcrafted ring valued at £35—a perfect addition to your jewelry collection.
