The Old City of Haifa
These are historical photographs showing the downtown
of Haifa before the restoration took place. For processing these photographs,
I used Computer's software. The process is based on computerized photography
technology. Originally, intensive Mediterranean light caused the sky
to appear in saturated blue color. I changed the saturation of the
color in order to get monochromatic effects emphasizing the aging
of houses. Also, I removed from the houses boards and signs, in order
to get rid of temporary elements. We may see beginnings to new life
in some of the pictures, for example: Repaired window, washings hanged
on the rope, chair hinting presence of human beings, and beam of light
falling on green grass that started to grow between the ruins. Lately
I began to add more growth sings, using acrylic technique, in order
to emphasize the potential beauty embodied in our present life.
