CONTRADICTORY LANDSCAPES

In this series, I question and reveal the flexible nature of symbolic landscapes. When Israeli forces invaded southern Lebanon, they made sure to mark their presence by building military sites on the hills and plateaus of the villages. They even used historical landmarks to imprison and torture Lebanese people. Formerly labeled during the occupation period as symbols of brutality, the resistance liberated these same sites in 2000, and now after more than fourteen years of the liberation, these landmarks now stand as witnesses to the importance of the resistance and its representation where the echoes of the confrontations and sacrifices of the rebels are still clearly heard in the valleys.
