Wiley focuses his attention on local youth culture in a country with unique political and historical importance. Wiley's goal for the series was to frame the young men in a royal light. For his Israeli works, he embedded each contemporary portrait in a background inspired by traditional Jewish designs.

Alios Itzhak and Mahmud Abu Razak  appear before a a nineteenth-century Ukrainian mizrah background.
