Klappentext

A Peoplehood | Amiut Yehudit is an intimate and layered exploration of contemporary Jewish identity. Through a conceptual documentary lens, Marnie Salsky weaves together present-day photographs, archival imagery, interview excerpts, and fragments from social media and print news. These elements serve as artifacts that mirror the various facets through which Jewish identity is witnessed, refracted, and archived. The result is a textured portrait of a community navigating belonging, diversity, and the lived experience of antisemitism.
