About The Artwork
Al-Arakib is an unrecognized Bedouin village in Israel. This term means that the Israeli government refuses to recognize the village, although it existed before the founding of the State of Israel. Being unrecognized by the State, the village is deprived of any official town plans (and consequently of building permits) and of basis infrastructure – water, electricity, sanitation, transportation, as well as education and health services. On top of that, in July 2010 the Israeli authorities demolished the village completely in order to plant a forest on its lands. Since July and up to now, the village has been demolished for more than 20 times. Each time the inhabitants returned and built new dwellings on their own lands. Recently they moved into the area of the nearby cemetery where the dwellings are not demolished. These photos were taken a few months before the recent spate of demolitions. Photos taken during the recent spate of demolitions will be uploaded soon.
