Jillian Edelstein: Here and There (signed)
"What would you do if you had 24 hours to leave your home, what would you take, who would you go with, how would you leave and would you, in effect go?"
The year in which photographer Jillian Edelstein turned 40 she came across an image of her great aunt Minna, of whose existence she had been unaware. The photograph of Minna became the catalyst for a journey to unearth her family history and the discovery of an unknown branch of her family living in Ukraine. Here and There documents Edelstein’s family odyssey and expands to encompass photographs made throughout her career, inextricably linked by the thread of human displacement.
"And that's the theme that runs through my family. A Veritable diaspora. South Africa, Israel, Canada, Colombia, United States, Australia, Italy, Mallorca, Ukraine. How many continents can one family possibly inhabit?...I wonder how I would feel if, from the age of my late teens, I never got to see or hear of my siblings ever again?" Jillian Edelstein
