The book weaves together personal memoirs that explore the craft of making Qamariya (Moon Window). It goes beyond presenting the craft as merely a skill or personal artistic practice; instead, it reflects on how this experience touches broader aspects of life, such as identity, belonging, and the meaning of home within a shifting context. The book includes a series of texts, photographs, and drawings, as well as scanned materials related to the project. It also features interactions with the artist’s family and craftsmen from the Qamariya workshops, along with links to audiovisual content that enrich the reader’s experience.
