Isaac Ben Aharon’s major series, "Cut From the Same Cloth," blends portraits of individuals worldwide with ethnographic textiles, showcasing their heritage. Together, these portraits form a tapestry of humanity, emphasizing our unity amid cultural diversity. My subjects embody strength, vulnerability, confidence, and modesty, revealing beauty within imperfections. Coming from a family of mixed Mizrachi and Ashkenazi heritage, Ben Aharon was inspired by Hen Mazzig’s "The Wrong Kind of Jew" to create a subset of "Cut From the Same Cloth," focusing on the diversity among Israelis.
