56 pictures for you
2009 | installation: photographs, bottles, wood
by Ala' Younis

My grandmother lived in the old city of Jerusalem. With her passing away, I started losing my ownership of her home. The coming generations will further this disconnection. I requested images of the empty property, in response; my cousin emailed "56 pictures for you". My grandmother had sent her medicine bottles from Jerusalem upon an agreement between us. Two treasured packages were sent from Jerusalem with a prospect of an art project.
