Walking Through Lands (un)Holy‪_‬

This book aims to be a tool to visually present my reflection on the pieces of reality that I encountered while traveling throughout parts of the land between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River, in the summer of 2010. I was a foreigner, a social anthropologist, a person observing, talking to diverse people, and taking photographs.



Conscious of the limitations of both the amateur photographic medium and of my own, subjective vision of what appeared as superficial realities; and willing to escape usual dichotomy when constructing categories that narrate the "other", particularly in this part of the world, I was drawn to question how discourse, and thus, meaning, is produced; and how identities, history, policy... stem from it and shape they way people see themselves and the "other".
