Entryway \ 2018 \ Manofim Festival Jerusalem.
Site-specific installation, mixed media
Various dimensions
The installation simulates an entrance hall, a passageway, a sensory gateway, with signifiers creating a living weave of pulsating memory. Facing stones from neighboring courtyards, symbols copied from exhibits in the museum, or from decorations on Arab architecture in Israel, drinking glasses from Morocco and Jordan, castings made in the studio yard, local flora and curbside finds were incorporated into the work which reflects the local culture of many-sided identity.
