With special access to the personal digital archives of Holocaust Centre North, a sensitive triptych was created in response to a telegram. Heartwarming illustrations capture the universal understanding of family connection.
To reflect the fragility and alienation experienced by Jewish families during World War II, delicate paper techniques were incorporated, adding depth to the real characters and narrative.
