Post-colonialism
The video shows children crossing the notorious Hebron (West Bank) checkpoint in the center of the old city. The video captures the insidious normalisation of this inhumane system of population control, and engages subtly with a subversive form of parody of the invisible guards, as an impatient adolescent bangs a turnstile gate.
Before starting my artist and residency project at Tel Hai Art Collegein 2016 I travelled extensively in and around the region of the West Bank (Bethlehem, Ramallah, Jericho, Hebron and Nablus). The resalt of this Postcolonialism international project was exhibit in Benjamini Contemporary Ceramics Center in Tel Aviv in between November 2016 until January of 2017. Curator of this project Wendy Gerst.
