Publisher Note
Betweenness , Lili Almog's fourth and most recent publication, was inspired by the practices of veiling by an extremist Jewish sect. Shifting the positing of the veil from its expected position in Islamic tradition, Lili Amog's artistic depiction of veiled women emphasizes the commonalities and complexities of female nature. In an unprecedented portrayal of the headgear symbol, she raises questions about freedom and belief and how these truths can coexist in modernity. Without judgment, Almog's imagery invites the viewer to question how self-expression affects her position and power.
Born in Israel in 1961, photo artist Lili Almog is known for her intimate spiritual portraits of women's cultural identities from around the world.
