QFAR AQAB

Qfar Aqeb is an Arab village and Jerusalem neighborhood located in East Jerusalem, home to approximately 120,000 inhabitants, with its population increasing daily. The area is characterized by uniform high-rise buildings constructed in extremely close proximity, creating exceptionally high population density.

This project was part of my studies, where I chose to explore Qfar Aqeb, an area geographically close yet personally unfamiliar to me, despite living in Jerusalem. Entering this neighborhood for the first time, I was unaware of what to expect. The striking contrast and drastic change in landscape so close to home never cease to amaze me.
