Berlin Paintings & Handmade Paper
This research-based series of paintings and handmade paper explores the contemporary regeneration of the Jewish community in Berlin, Germany. While living in Berlin for 10 months with the support of a Fulbright Award from September 2024 to July 2025, I conducted archival research, gathered reference imagery from the built environment, and immersed myself in the local community to understand the ways in which Berlin’s Jewish community is establishing a presence for Jewish culture in German society that is consistent with or different from the legacies left by Germany’s pre-war Jews, as well as how individuals envision the future of German Jewish life.
