“Wandering the Souk: Marketplaces and Peoples of Israel and Turkey,” a show by senior Maureen Hsia, opens Tuesday, April 3 in the Wikoff Gallery in the Nott Memorial.
The show features 16 photos taken by Hsia, a History major from Shanghai who traveled to Turkey and Israel last winter, in part for her senior thesis research.
Her project, she says, “is part of a larger desire I have to explore and understand history and culture in the Middle East. My hope is that this project conveys more than just the beauty of places and people in Israel and Turkey; I also hope to share some insight on my perception of social and cultural realities in the Middle East.”
The show will be on view through May 2.
