Calm before the storm by stephen trutwin
Stephen, an Adelaide Hills photographer, travelled to Jerusalem and the occupied territory of the West Bank in the first week of October last year, departing Tel Aviv the afternoon before Hamas attacked Israel. Inspired by recent events this is an exhibition of photographs taken in the region at a time of relative peace, but with a brutal war imminent.
Sale proceeds to be donated to Medecins Sans Frontieres who provide medical aid in Gaza and the West Bank.
