Abstract
This article examines the everyday impact of the West Bank wall by considering how Palestinians have used it as the medium for an art that enhances and enriches their strategies of resistance. As I explore the art inscribed on the wall, I parse the many meanings generated by the graffiti of this occupation.
Keywords: resistance, Palestine, walls, borders, checkpoints, art, politics
