Yair Meyuhas is a photographer and a visual artist. During the Covid pandemic, he invited 10 families living in different communities of Jerusalem for a family portrait inside a metal frame. The portraits were exhibited in lifesize light boxes on Jaffa street in the center of Jerusalem in 2021.
The families include Palestinian, Jewish secular, Ultra Jewish orthodox, and Jewish Orthodox. The project also features LGBTQ families living in Jerusalem. This art project celebrates Jerusalem's diverse population and hope for mutual respect and empathy.
