About

Tatreez Garden is an AI image generator trained on Palestinian embroidery interwoven with plants significant to Palestinian ecology, culture, and cuisine.

Tatreez is a wearable art form practised by Palestinian women for thousands of years, with motifs that reflect social ties, identity, connection to the land, cultural memory and resistance.

Tatreez Garden reinterprets traditional cross-stitch patterns with generative AI to explore the continuity of Palestinian culture and identity across time, space, and technologies.

Users participate in this evolving archive by generating unique images, reaffirming Palestinian technological narratives and futurities against the ongoing Nakba, dispossession, and erasure.
