Untitled Transpoders (Jerusalem)
Positioned throughout the Old City over the course of the exhibition are 3mm LEDs which shine a brilliant blue for approximately 15 days. Recalling fireflies in both size and life span, these lights conjure the primitive wonder of first witnessing these mysterious insects. And much like the irresistible youthful compulsion to capture these glowing creatures, the lights once discovered invariablyshift location in the hands of children and adults alike, mapping a passage throughout the Old City, which is as such, in constant flux.
A multifaceted project initiated in Egypt for the 2006 Nomadic Artists Symposium on the idea of Territories organized by Lara Baladi, this project continues to expand but constant in all it's iterations in the simple pleasure a little light can bring.
