Neither a Salt Spring Nor a Horse
Neither a Salt Spring Nor a Horse documents Waplington's series of Poseidon Paintings situated within two series of photographs: Olive Trees (2013) was taken in “no man’s land” between the Jewish settlement of Har Homa, south of Jerusalem, and the Palestinian city of Bethlehem, a few hundred meters away. The second series of photographs, Athena 1 to 9 (2012), were taken while Waplington was out walking in the mountains in the northern West Bank. The women in the photographs are students at a midrasha, or Jewish religious boarding school, in the settlement of Shvut Rachel.
