Ziv Koren / Heartbeat

Aviv

Aviv Gefen, 5 years and 8 months, from Bat Hefer, is one of a twin and brother to Emma. He was born at 25 weeks weighing 818 grams, and was treated in the Neonatology Department at Schneider Children’s.

Ziv Koren, an awardwinning docu-photographer, volunteered to document daily hospital routine and special moments taking place within the walls of Schneider Children's Medical Center of Israel. Five years later, Ziv Koren returned to the hospital and photograph those same children again in a similar location – and healthy.
