Her photographic study of Nazi architecture in Berlin was a springboard to the current body of work, which looks at life today in Israel&#8217;s charged landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Historically, both Berlin and Jerusalem have been referred to as &#8220;cities of stone&#8221; and Hossack&#8217;s scope also encompasses a third city of stone, the ancient hilltop fortress of Masada. Through the works in\u00a0<em>Cities of Stone\u2013People of Dust she considers the architecture of memory and commemoration, the theme of loss, longing, and lamentation, and the question of inclusion and exclusion. <em>I do hope that Cities of Stone \u2013 People of Dust will raise awareness and pose questions. The question that\u201d kept running through my mind as I explored historic Berlin and modern Isreal was: at what cost?<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT; font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: TimesNewRomanPS-ItalicMT;
