For 76 years, Palestine has lost its identity: borders have been changed, new lines drawn, long walls built, homes occupied and destroyed. For 76 years, traditions in Palestine have been broken, families separated, and lives interrupted.
Before the conflict intensified, one question arose naturally to those who visited the region: Who will inherit Palestine?
At least, this is the question posed by Greg C. Holland, a London-based documentary photographer, who returned to the West Bank four times between 2022 and 2024, continuing to work on his photography project Inheritance.


When he is there, his time is split between documenting the landscape and the daily lives of the people, and spending mornings or afternoons at a skatepark built by the local community, where young and old, girls and boys, can find a moment of relaxation and connection.

In his shots, there is everything except the most important thing—the one that prevents people from leaving the country: the sound of bombs. “A violin weeps from a rooftop in Ramallah, while midnight machine gun fire and dawn chorus sound grenades keep us awake until morning – writes Holland. “Every night, all we hear is boom boom boom” he said, pointing his invisible gun to the sky”.


“Would you rather” I asked, “have the ability to fly or be invisible?”
“Be invisible” he said. “So I could just walk out of here, past the checkpoints and soldiers and just leave. They’d shoot me if I could fly”.
