wall of tears, abu dis












Concrete routes
: the almost 10-meter high Separation Wall/"Barrier" in Greater Jerusalem cuts through a Palestinian neighborhood, an incision that splits the community into East Jerusalem and the West Bank. A "wall of tears", a transport of consequences from the Warsaw of World War II to Abu Dis, the freight of past and present occupations. Suffering communities, and those in between; Berlin's wall is recalled in testaments of resistance.
