"Jerusalem and a Palestinian grandma, from a postcard in the 1930s.. Each time I see this image I enter it and walk up the hill with the old woman -- she's just finished selling the figs and pears in Bab El-Amoud and is walking home.. How much I am walking with her and love it!" -- Ibtisam Barakat 2010.
