Join Student Voices for Palestine and campus partners for tea and a intimate conversation “Palestine is a Feminist Struggle,” with artist Mary Hazboun!
Mary Hazboun is a multidisciplinary Chicago-based Palestinian artist who utilizes drawing as an act of processing grief and somatic healing of bodies. Mary graduated from DePaul University in 2017 with a Master’s degree in Women’s and Gender Studies. Mary’s work highlights the nuanced traumas of women and their resistance against different forms of oppression that is manifested in the military machine, settler colonialism, patriarchal societies, and forced migrations. She uses art as a way of emptying blocked emotions, opening internal space, and pouring in trauma-informed introspections as a form of healing. Mary was born and raised in the city of Bethlehem and moved to the U.S in 2004.
