Somewhere Over
Stowed away on the ark, at the mercy of the storming waves and surrounded by darkness, Noah releases the dove out of a small hatch. Throughout the nerve-racking wait for the flood’s end, the wide horizon serves as a backdrop for the relationship between sea and sky; between hope and emergency routine; between expectation and disappointment.
In Israel today, where the limits of our ark grow smaller with every day, the hatch provides a chance to view a personal, social and collective horizon of our own, which maintains the same anticipation for the ‘day after’.
Through a series of periscopes installed in an interactive display, ‘Somewhere Over’ offers a glimpse of possible horizons, and an alternate view of reality.
