Urban Quote or "The Skin I Live In"
Intervention by Sala-Manca
Gouache on stone
The façade of the house is marked by numbers reminiscent of the marking of buildings designated for demolition in Jerusalem. The disparity between the structure's interior and exterior is emphasized and becomes a memorial in a process looming over re-built Jerusalem with destructive realty projects. Intentionally or unintentionally, Ein Karem is an island
of conservation of the other's architectural heritage.
