Tower of Babel

The work for this exhibition explores the geography of the outskirts of the city and the dichotomies of segregation and seperation of communities. It casts light on the silences and fissures that exist in the terrain and the way in which architecture has become a testimony and inscription on the landscape of the realities of Palestinians and Israelis, the architecture contours the landscape in which the settlement overlooks the refugee camp, two communities, with no communication, and a valley between them. The reference to Brugel’s Tower of Babel carries reference to both religious ambitions, futility and the impossibility of communication.
