burial//

The Bedouin are an indigenous people of the Naqab desert who are marginalized under extreme pressure from the Israeli government. They have called these lands home for millennia however, due to governmental policy and practices their traditional way of life, or even death is under threat. Here, a multifaith cemetery is a response to three prominent and yet not dissimilar burial practices of the Bedouin, Muslim, and Jewish people in the area. The cemetery is organized to honor each faith, while providing security to the graves of the more marginalized groups.
