 'In 2012 on a work visiting Isreal I saw the wall that separates the country for the first time. It woke me up to the complicated truths of the world and is an important moment for me in becoming aware. With the divides around the world growing, the symbol of the wall seems ever pressing' Harley Weir.

At MEP – Maison Européenne de la Photographie, visitors are welcomed to see the first solo show in France of the British photographer. It is a new project based on time spent at the Israel-Palestine border since the 2013 Israeli separation wall and the area encompassing it. It connects images taken during personal trips around East Jerusalem and the West Bank.
