'The horse in Arabic is a symbol of freedom. But to us, this horse is much more. This horse is us.’
Built from the debris of a major invasion, the Horse of Jenin sculpture became a constant presence in Alaa’s life growing up in Occupied Palestine. It stood proudly in the centre of the city for twenty years, symbolising hope and resistance.
Then, on 29 October 2023, an Israeli bulldozer entered the city, ripping the sculpture from its place — and from its people.
Now, Alaa is left wondering… What happened to the horse?
Constructed from the fragments of Palestinian actor and comedian Alaa Shehada’s own memories, The Horse of Jenin is an ode to the power of imagination and the resilience it brings.
