Private commission as memory art piece
August 2022
Ruben Aharoni was a tailor for close to 60 years working from his shop at Ashdod's old commercial center in Israel. Recently both he and his wife Hanna passed away. Their kids asked me to go visit the locked down wonderful tailor shop and pick the materials that I needed to create their portraits as a way to celebrate their parents' lives but also to preserve these tools that carried family memories. It was a lengthy and emotional project for everyone involved. Every material used in this portrait was found in the old shop including flat patterns papers (used for heads and body) and threads used for the wrinkles on the faces.
