In her The Afterlife of Palestinian Images: Visual Remains and the Archive of Disappearance, the Palestinian filmmaker, writer, and artist Azza El Hassan provides compelling terms of reference by which to engage the fate of Palestinian artefacts as “remains,” or “remnants of plunder.”Concentrating mainly on film and photography, El Hassan focuses primarily on the “afterlife” of artefacts subject to Israeli violence and theft.
