View from a Window at Abulafia
03:23 min. Loop, HD video, 2014
The video project View from a Window at Abulafia is a documentation of a rooftop outside my studio window in the industrial area of Tel Aviv, on which crows suddenly appear. This minor event was captured while it was projected on paper in my studio, by using the entire room as a pinhole camera. The technique brings to mind Niepce’s early photograph View from a window at Le Gras. However, because of the digital nature of the piece, the resulting image is full of noise that creates the illusion of movement.
