Painted Relief: sawdust and glue on wood

Using an innovative technique of sawdust and glue to create painted reliefs, Zarara developed a unique visual language centred on themes of resistance and identity. His work merged personal memory with national history, often featuring freedom fighters, revolutionary slogans and symbolic landscapes. His practice extended beyond Palestine, portraying global liberation movements in Ireland, Latin America and South Africa.
