Noor Jabareen is a multidisciplinary Palestinian artist whose practice is shaped by the complex political and social realities under occupation. Drawing from personal experience and direct observation, her work engages questions of identity, memory, and the conditions of human existence.
Working across sculpture, printmaking, and oil painting, Jabareen navigates between abstraction and realism, allowing each mode to articulate different layers of meaning. Concrete plays a central role in her practice, functioning both as material and metaphor. Used in sculptural form, integrated into paintings, or presented as ready-made objects, it reflects the contradictions of place, stability and rupture, endurance and fragility. Within a landscape of political conflict, concrete becomes a witness to both personal and collective struggle.
Through her artworks and ongoing research into her family’s archives, Jabareen explores how identity is formed beyond legal definitions and numerical classifications. Her practice is driven by an interest in memory and human relationships, seeking narratives that exist beyond what is documented or officially recorded.
