Asufit

The Asufit (Gatherer) is a collection of stories, images and articles which reveal our personal critical perspectives as Jewish Israelis.

The project was born out of our joint work within the artistic research project „School for Unlearning Zionism“, an artistic space for critical learning in which the Zionist narratives in which we were raised are explored.

The first Asufit issue, which will be published in a bilingual edition (English and Hebrew), deals with different layers of hegemonic Zionist narratives, whether these layers are visible, covert or imaginary. By looking at the multilayered Israeli reality and at specific moments and places in it, we interrupt and reflect on power structures as they exist within it.

We invite you to enter the Asufit, a space which documents processes and creates opportunities of and for shared learning as a decolonial act.

Six contributions will be published within this first issue of the Asufit:

• Grandpa and Me / Na’ama Landau
• Looking for Ariel / Lia Tarachansky
• Hold Your Nose and Keep Driving – Hiriya / Yehudit Yinhar
• Antiprolog for my Grandmother / Adi Liraz
• Where is Here / Daphna Westerman
• Hearing an Image and Seeing Beyond / Livnat Konopny Decleve

The Asufit is created independently. For us to maintain its political and artistic integrity we ask for your help in covering the costs of bringing it into the world.
With your support, we will cover the expenses of the linguistic editing, graphic design, translation, printing, manual binding and distribution of the first Asufit issue.
The Asufit Team thanks you for any contributions!
