Loom|Father|Requiem
Walk around the exhibit Loom|Father|Requiem above and click on objects that interest you or learn about the Halperns.
The Panorama digitally recreates the exhibit “Loom|Father|Requiem” that was shown at the Central Museum of Textiles in Poland (Łódź) and the Eretz Israel Museum in Israel (Tel Aviv). In this exhibit, I integrate into my art the memories of my Jewish family, which had its roots in Łódź and its textile industry.
My grandfather Moshe Halpern was a weaver of fabrics for corsets.
My father Avraham Halpern was a weaver of Jacquard textiles.
I am Roni Halpern Ben Ari, a weaver of memories from the loom's DNA.
