You Will Not Destroy Our Souls – Gaza

•January 5, 2012 • Leave a Comment

Gaza Strip

‘If you destroy our houses you will not destroy our souls’. Graffiti in the Gaza Strip.
(I need to check my notes to see where it was shot. It was an area near an Israeli watchtower in either Rafah or Khan Younis. An area of almost total devastation at the time.)

2012 will see new photographic works and experimental works using photography in approaches to documentary and portraiture. The Horseman 5×4 and 10×8 will resurface, if my back can take it. New images using digital including phone cameras. Also, new video work. There is a lot of work to do and put out there.
