Research & Writing
As the Holocaust Legacy Foundation Gideon Klein Scholar, Max developed a digital exhibition that unearths the secret archive created by a clandestine group of Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto. Led by historian Emanuel Ringelblum, the Oyneg Shabes documented daily life, atrocities, and acts of resistance — burying their words so they might outlive them.
As both a curated archive and a critical intervention, the exhibition aims to showcase how historical memory is shaped not just by what survives, but by how — and why — it was recorded in the first place.
