About Artwork
This artwork represents the way some Palestinian children learn to accomplish things early on in their childhood. Wool spinning is one of the many traditional handicraft skills taught at a young age. Here you can see a young Palestinian girl using a traditional spindle wheel. The use of pink shades and an intricate pattern reflects a young girl’s active childhood.
