In "Natush" (abandoned) I wanted to create a dialogue with the aesthetic architectural style - Art Deco. The intention was to use fragments of building facades and examine their practices as if they were mathematics elements, geometric motifs disassembled and reassembled, and thus capable of creating dynamic, flow, innovation and functionality. Unlike the original Art Deco, which was stylish, modern, shiny transparent but still hint on industrial world, I wanted to run the same "function" on forgotten neglected industrial area.
Each of the images is "architectural fiction" based on some "real" ones which were re-organized. The connections were done in a way that preserves the "laws" of Art Deco with the freedom of creation.
For the story telling, I choose an area which emphasizes a temporary on- going relationships between residents, structure and space, in a process that is camouflaged and subversive.
All the facades are opaque, hides what's going on behind them. The façade does not imply on "home". It seems as if the "image-fraud" is a misleading, created by the "neglected" facades in order to help the hider to be hidden. Thus effectively expropriated the intention of the artist owns.
Time, neglect creates a new storyline, new style, new culture. In the same manner, as the photography assembling are concealed to the viewer, so what is going on behind the facades is confidential to the investigate critique eye, Undermines the objectivity photo/reality.
To the people of Israel, it’s a well-known fact, that behind those fences hiding un-legal tenants, African Job immigrant. The high fence enables them to be hidden from the law and in the other hand to live as they never left their origin home.
