Majd Arandas (1994-2023) A Memorial in Fragments
Palestinian photographer Majd Arandas was killed by an Israeli airstrike near his home in Deir al-Balah in central Gaza on 1 November 2023. Arandas’s posthumous images, retrieved by his brother, offer fragmented glimpses of his life up until his tragic death. Here, traces speak to a life marked by the quiet gestures of affection and the subtle exchanges of care
