This piece is designed by Noor in Gaza. A small enamel pin featuring a single red poppy entwined by a black-and-white kuffiya. The poppy’s petals are a deep, matte crimson. The kuffiya wraps around the poppy’s stem in a gentle spiral flutters slightly, suggesting movement and resilience.
Symbolism and inspiration
Poppy: a symbol of remembrance for lives lost, rendered in rich red to signify sacrifice and enduring memory.
Kuffiya: a cultural emblem of Palestinian identity and resistance, depicted wrapped around the poppy to show solidarity and protection.
Composition: the kuffiya’s embrace of the poppy visualizes commitment to the path of steadfastness, standing with and upholding resistance as expressed in Saleh Aljafarawi’s last will.
Always stand with the resistanceI urge you to uphold the resistance
The path we have walked, and the approach we have believed in.
We have known no other path for ourselves, nor found meaning in life except in steadfastness upon it.
—Saleh Aljafarawi
