Fureidis, arab village in the center of Israel
A sunny day in Fureidis, an arab village just next to the israeli village Kerem Maharal. Nothing hostile, just welcoming and curious faces everywhere. "For the two of us, it's so easy to make peace and be friends", a man says, putting his arm around my brother-in-laws shoulder. " But there are still to many who don't want peace at all." Sometimes life is so easy, as in that moment, when the kids are playing soccer, that global game that somehow unites the whole world. And there's always a glimpse of hope in these moments, when life seems to be just so simple and beautiful.
Sarah was born and raised in Germany, where she studied Spanish and Fine Arts (Painting and Photography). In 2005 she travelled to Latin America for the first time which was a turning point in her life. She went back to the continent many times and started photographing social issues in 2006, influenced by photographers like Paolo Pellegrin or David Alan Harvey. “To me, photography is a way to tell someone’s story. I am not interested in the big issues, but in the small stories of people anyone would listen to. To these people that let me be a part of their lives for a moment that can be a miserable, difficult or also euphoric one, I have a responsibility. “
