Khairy Khadr says about his work: “Since 2018, I have started making tambourines using my own tools and equipment, and I make them from apricot, willow, and mulberry trees, which include those from all four parts of Kurdistan, especially the Kurmanji one. Until now, I have provided tambourines to many famous artists from Sinjar.”
