Revolutions sifts through the grains of Muslim daughterhood to reveal two metaphorical circles inextricably overlapping: shame and pleasure. In an extended conversation with Mona Hatoum's artwork + and , Revolutions asks how young Arab women who live in homes and communities where actions are surveilled and categorized as 3aib or not 3aib, shameful or acceptable make and unmake their identities.
