I was inspired by the board game Who's Who for my project, to reflect who makes up my family, their origins, and what my ancestors did to progress and reach a better place like Argentina. They had to go through situations such as poverty and discrimination in Poland and Russia to get where they dreamed of being.
With this project, I took a journey into the past to understand my present, an exploration to learn more about my Jewish roots, delving deep into my history to understand what happened and how we got to where we are today.
The main theme that inspired me is the sense of family and how Judaism brought them together and my ancestors embarked on a path to a better life. Each game piece represents a person, a story, an important life for me and my family.
