A House Without a Roof is a photographic book and installation of images and texts which looks at the deeply intertwined histories of violence and displacement connecting Europe to Israel and the Palestinian Territories.
Framed by the relationship between my grandfather (a Jewish-Lithuanian survivor of Dachau), my dad (who briefly lived on an Israeli kibbutz in the 1970s) and me, A House Without a Roof wrestles with contradictory narratives and points of view. Histories and time fold into one another as the mythologies and memories of my family become entangled with the ongoing narratives of violence, trauma and mass displacement which continue to play out in present-day Israel and Palestine.
