The Construction of My Foundations

Carlos Kably Kalach's project for My Family Story 2021. ANU- Museum of the Jewish People

Carlos Kably Kalach

Family is like a building. If you have strong values and bases, we will have a solid and strong building. Each floor represents a new generation and in each one, the corresponding age furniture has been placed; each of the no trespassing tape pieces represents that the building continues to be built generation after generation and that it hasn’t been finished. The front of the building paint job is still pending since it represents the not yet finished work. On top of each person, there is a QR code containing a small biography and picture of the corresponding person. What I keep of this project to myself are the values and the Judaism that my ancestors have passed on to me throughout the years and I intend to continue telling them.
