"Faqqua Bloom" pays heartfelt homage to the native Faqqua Iris, a rare and enchanting wildflower that grows in the northern hills of Palestine, near the village of Faqqua in the West Bank. Revered for its deep purple hues and delicately veined petals, this flower emerges briefly each spring, a fleeting yet powerful reminder of the land’s enduring beauty and spirit.

This design features stylized depictions of the Faqqua Iris gracefully interwoven with the outline of historic Palestine, creating a bold yet elegant composition that evokes both natural grace and cultural strength. Every curve and color in the piece tells a story—of resilience rooted in the soil, of heritage passed down through generations, and of a people whose identity blooms even in the face of adversity.

Beyond its aesthetic value, "Faqqua Bloom" symbolizes the unbreakable connection between nature and national identity. Just as the iris withstands the rocky terrain and blossoms defiantly, so too do the people of Palestine continue to flourish, preserve, and express their cultural legacy. The design draws inspiration from traditional Palestinian art forms while offering a modern reinterpretation—blending the past and present into a unified visual narrative.

This powerful artwork titled “The Olive Trees Remember” reflects the deep cultural and ecological connection between Palestine and its ancient olive trees. At the center, the design contrasts the enduring olive tree — a symbol of resilience, roots, and sustenance — with the non-native pine tree, which represents imposed change, erasure, and displacement. The circular composition is divided into four quadrants, balancing tradition against artificial replacement, while the surrounding wheat motifs emphasize the theme of land, harvest, and survival.

The text beneath grounds the visual in historical reality: the uprooting of native olive trees and their replacement with fast-growing pines that erase heritage and provide no sustenance. This loss, both cultural and ecological, is a reminder of resilience and resistance through memory, as olive trees carry the legacy of generations.
