Instructor Bio: Amanne Sharif is a Bay Area-based Palestinian Tatreez artist. She has always had a deep connection to her Palestinian identity, which was strongly reinforced by her maternal grandmother who became a refugee in 1948 when she was marched out of her village, Al-Qubab, in the Ramleh region. Eventually her maternal grandparents resettled in Brazil but made sure to maintain their Palestinian identity. Amanne infuses her identity into every piece, using traditional motifs with a vibrant twist.
