The Jerusalem Show, Outside the Gates of Heaven

The Jerusalem Show (‘Ala Abwab Al Janna) borrows its English title from the vivacious and atypical formats of the Saturday Night Live show and the Muppet Show, whereas its Arabic title ‘Ala Abwab Al Janna (Outside the Gates of Heaven) references the sacramental veneration that is bestowed on Jerusalem. A similar ludicrous dichotomy is ostensible to Jerusalem’s inhabitants (including us at Al-Ma’mal Foundation). Read more

Assemblage

Assemblage (2008): Archival film material of a British observation kite ballon used during the Mandate period in Palestine is overlaid with a montage of sounds from religious orders. The sounds at times seem to almost imitate or respond to each other, confusing identities, whilst also transforming the kite ballon from war machine to prophetic apparatus of the sublime. Archive material courtesy of the Trustees of the Imperial War Museum, IW30; sound design by John Wynn.
