This series is composed of tryptychs, that look into the memory of Holocaust survivors. The first of the three images is a portrait of the survivor taken with the light of a “Yizkor” candles. These candles are significant in the Jewish religion because they are lit in memory of a lost family member. Every survivor lost a close family member, relative or friend. The lighting technique was inspired by Georges Latour, but re-appropriated by myself to symbolize the fact that out of the darkness of their past, there is still the cherished memory of those left behind which illuminates the survivor. This is the manner in which I introduce the protagonist of the visual narrative that is told in the triptych. The second image is one which I made in the Dachau Concentration camp museum; this tells the narrative of the survivor’s experience. The survivors are all relatives or friends of my family. I know of their experiences and searched for visual references at Dachau and incorporated those into the second in the series of three images. The third image of each series of three is a close up of the scar that the survivor carries with him.
