For 40 years, Wendy Ewald has traveled the world working with local communities to help them create their own images of themselves and their communities. This image was made by Amal, a girl who lives in the Wadi al-Naam Bedoin village in southern Israel.

In "This Is Where I Live," Ewald attempts to portray the entire country of Israel through its discreet parts and communities. Photo by Ameer Amar from the Druze village of Julis.

The photographers in Ewald's book aren't using sophisticated techniques or equipment, but as trusted members of the community, they are able to access places and moments that may be unavailable to outsiders. Photo by Omer, a Jewish Israeli at pre-Army school in Ein Gedi.

Ewald worked with members of fourteen different communities including West Bank children, vendors at a Jerusalem marketplace and Bedouins in the Negev Desert. Photo by Abed, a primary school student from the mixed Arab and Jewish Israeli town of Lod.
