- The newest show up on the Women in Photography website is from photographer Dina Kantor. Dina lives and works as a teacher in Brooklyn. Her project Finnish Jewish has some really beautiful portraits. From her statement; "In January 2006 I began photographing the members of the small Jewish community in Finland. In addition to being a visual record, the images function as a sociological document exploring how Finnish Jews live, work and practice their religious traditions. How does Judaism survive in a country where there are only two synagogues? In a nation of 5.3 million people, how do 1,500 Jews maintain their cultural identity; how do they have a voice?". See more of her work here.
