Designed for the exhibition space,

this light installation em-

phasises the idea of border crossing from four cardinal

points. This project faces the audi-

ence to a response, arounsing cu-

riostity and putting the visitor into the situation of a traveller, crossing

a space whose access had been

forbiden by a signali-sation on the floor forcing the

the visitor to transgress the

space rules.

Blasphem , 2010, Republic of Moroc-co.

Jelazon refugee camp, West Bank, September 2012

Iyad: “This is me now. I dont care about history. Me, my family, my

children.

I want to leave from here but its too expansive to get out of here.

I was injured by the army. Two bullets.”

He put a youtube video. A famous rabbi talks about Arabs in Jordan, in

Lebanon, in Syria. This Rabbi says that all united, two mill ions he said,

the arabs will be walking, crossing the Golan to march upon Israel.

The mother of Iyad said she likes him. It was hard for me to understand

at the beginning. But then i understood that it was seen as a prophecy,

as something that will happen. They loved this stupid Rabbi because

they wanted revenge, for the people kil led, injured, jailed and harassed.

We told them that they didn’t understood that this Rabbi’s goal was

to fear israeli people. To make the israelis beleive that the Arabs were

about to invade Israel. To use fear in order to make Israel kil l before it

would be threatened. The death logic.

Jelazon camp is a small city. A refugee camp is a city. With concrete.

Iyad is really good to us. He invited us for dinner. Huge amount of food.

We talked, he put a youtube video where a preacher talks. We say we’re

not here to get converted.

I talk with him about this one state idea. I ask him if he would be able

to imagine a state with no religion. “Who wants to go to the mosk, go

to the mosk. Who.. temple.. go to temple.. Who… church.. go to the

church… Who doesn’t want to go to pray, don’t pray.”

He said yes. He said he’s ready to live with the jews.

Iyad mother had her brother kil led. She doesn’t want to deal with the

jews.

Me into this cab alive, breathing the air, aware of the country, happy

to be with them, happy to be accepted everywhere i went, happy to be

free, not to lie, to discover people, to say fuck to the racists, to live my

life as someone who enjoys. It seemed the people of Palestine wanted

to talk to me. Not to the american, not to the indian, not the other peo-

ple that were with us. When i was in the knafe place the people were

intrigated. They shook my hand, they called me, they came and told me

their name, they wanted to know me as much as i wanted to know them,

they invited me to their place, they gave me food, they put theirs ideas

into me. I dreamed, i came to israel to tell the people. Ive been hanging

out with beautiful people. I met a girl in Ramallah who was life itself

and it frightened me. I thought i was unable to meet the people, not to

frighten them, not to loose them, not to get their fear mirrored and be

accepted.
