Sarai Meyron – No Words of Warmth

No Words of Warmth / Keine wärmende Worte is a multifaceted and hybrid art book – combining text, sound, and images – that provides a glimpse of a young Jewish woman’s life as an artist in Germany. Associations relating to the roles of sister, daughter, mother, and grandmother are woven together through the eyes of the protagonist to create a cohesive feminist voice that explores the past and its influence on the present. Reality blurs with fantasy in a form of stream-of-consciousness writing that is as true as memory or remembered history. Energised by a process of critical self reflection, this book can be seen as a stand against dehumanisation, and a reflection of Jewish life in Germany today.
