Trackers

Palestine / Israel, 2005
series of 85 photographs, 37 x 55.5 cm; 55.5 x 37 cm; 60 x 90 cm; 90 x 60 cm, gelatine silver prints; chromogenic prints



Trackers is a series of photographs taken in 2005 depicting Palestinians of Bedouin descent who served or are serving as volunteers in the Israeli Army. The project is concerned with the price a colonized minority is forced to pay to the majority of colonizers, perhaps to be accepted, perhaps to change its identity, perhaps to survive, or perhaps all this and more.
