Emily Jacir

Emily Jacir splits her time between the West Bank town of Ramallah and New York City. Crossing Surda, shown in the current exhibition, is a document of Jacir’s experience – some banal, some harrowing – of crossing the militarized Surda checkpoint that separates Ramallah, where she lives, from Birzeit University, where she works.
