Mona Gazala

Mona Gazala, a Palestinian American artist, grounds her work in the recognition that all battles against oppression and systemic injustices are interconnected. As an interdisciplinary artist, she delves into power dynamics and their connections to marginalized communities. Her subjects span from the erasure of indigenous Palestinian and Native American peoples and cultures to the impact of gentrification, displacing low-income families and people of color in urban settings. Whether addressing local or global issues, Mona employs visual art and social actions to amplify subversive narratives within situations of power imbalance, countering the consequences of historical, cultural, and social erasure.
