Brooklyn New York Photographer Rachel Papo - Brooklyn Artist - Artistaday.comAt an age when social, sexual, and educational explorations are at their highest point, the life of an eighteen-year-old Israeli girl is interrupted. She is plucked from her home surroundings and placed in a rigorous institution where her individuality is temporarily forced aside in the name of nationalism.
