"Leisure Time in Israel," photographs

The 'habitus' of contemporary Israeli life is explored in this project from the perspective of public leisure sites and their inhabitants. The photographs were taken in leisure parks, swimming pools, hotels and malls between 1996 and 1997. Bursting with color the photographs intend to capture two different moments: the interrelationships between the site and the visitors and the interplay between the Western universal and the Israeli local nature of these sites.
