The Way to Health is the second in the trilogy, in which Tamar Nissim explores the structuring of the Jewish nation’s values, and how it unwrapped the Yemenite, the East, and the Balkans Children Affair. The exhibition is focused on hygiene education during the British Mandate in Palestine, which was mostly directed at women and children. Nissim examines how hygiene was used as an indication of the quality of the collective group and created an exclusion, or possibility, not necessarily accomplished, to be considered a civilized person.
