THE PLACE: West Bank

THE STORY: Israel’s separation barrier, 20 years on

THE PHOTOGRAPHER: Oded Balilty

“I always like to include, in some stories, one or two photos where not everything is clear —
to create this feeling of mystery. To drag you in. ” — ODED BALILTY

ON CAPTURING DAILY LIFE AT AND NEAR THE SEPARATION BARRIER

I was not looking for the conflict. I was not looking for this shocking moment that we usually

have in the protests against the wall. Every Friday we have clashes next to the wall.

I chose not to go to these places. I chose to show: How does it feel on a daily basis?

And I think it’s more effective. I was trying to show life next to the wall but not necessarily

what is happening because of the wall. The wall is just there. It’s there as effect.

The wall doesn’t affect the situation in the photo. It’s not that people are climbing on the wall

or trying to break it or that there is a gap they’re trying to go through. Its markets, its people

crossing into Israel, its trees that grow on the sidewalk. You need to find the right balance

between to show that the wall is there and show the life that’s happening around it.

무자비한 짝퉁 유대인들의 분리장벽에 갇힌
비참한 예루살렘 서안의 팔레스타인 사람들

벌써 창살없는 감옥에 갇힌지 20년이 지났다
지금 가지에선 전쟁이 한창 진행 중이다
아니 전쟁이 아니라
유대인 들의 일방적인 살육이 진행 중이다

작년 초에 찍힌 예루살렘 서안지구의
분리장벽 사진을 구해서 옮긴다

서안지구를 조각조각 분리장벽으로 갈라놓고
야금야금 정착촌을 지어 영토를 넓힌 유대인들
이 땅의 원주인 들은 점차 좋은 땅을 뺏기고
점점 구석으로 밀려나는 중이다
