In Moshav Malkia, on a ridge overlooking the Lebanese border, an unconventional studio operates inside a train carriage converted into a workshop.
Here, Zohar designs and crafts handmade cowboy hats under the brand ZOZO. A traditional craft requiring patience, precision, and attention to detail, creating unique pieces for private clients and professional competitive riders.
Located in the heart of a cattle and horse ranch, the studio operates under security conditions where warning time can be virtually nonexistent. Among raw materials, tools, and handcrafted hats, the daily routine of creation continues alongside constant uncertainty.
This photographic series documents Zohar, her working environment, and the intersection between traditional craftsmanship and life along the border.
On the frontline, creativity endures.
