My Family InstaStory

Arie Sar Shalom's project for My Family Story 2021. ANU- Museum of the Jewish People

Arie Sar Shalom

Arie shares his family's story interactively and digitally. His choice was influenced by the Covid-19 pandemic, during which everyone communicated through screens. He selected wood for the firm foundation to denote Judaism's place in his family. The light, clear acrylic windows epitomize his history: their motion represents the passage of time, which is lit by the pillar of hope that guided the Jewish people. Arie Sar Shalom does not only present his story, he also emphasizes what he learned about the importance of family in particular and of Judaism in general.
