General Description:

"Three sisters" is Michal Heiman's latest work.

This highly saturated image contains a mundane yet poetic scene, in which a family of three young Ultra Orthodox sisters are photographed in front of a residential building. Beneath it is a stamp in Hebrew with the title: Three Sisters.

The minimal details in this image are crystallized in a manner in which they depict a loaded emotional, cultural, and aesthetic reality linked to Israeli Orthodox Jews. At the same time the image and text function on a broad level, carrying with them universal themes and myths regarding family bonds and sisterhood.

Price does not include frame. Available also in high quality pvc frame or black box frame.
