Stateless Nation at the Still Life exhibition in Leeds

Posted: 17.06.1008

Stateless Nation – Sandi Hilal and Alessandro Petti

Architects and artists Sandi Hilal and Alessandro Petti of Decolonizing Architecture present their exhibition and long term research stateless nation presented at the Venice biennale 2003. The work explores the current Palestinian condition, including suffering military occupation, undergoing alienation in one’s own native land, and exile. In particular the work investigates and observes the new relationships between territory, state and populations, and further reflects the new meanings and implications of this on the physical and social Palestinian experience of space.
