Isola Cactus

2002

The year 2002 was a year of drought in Israel.
The water level of the Sea of Galilee, which is the main source of water in Israel,

went under "the red line" and this caused a formation of an island in the heart of the lake.
 

The arbitrariness and temporary character of the island were at the focus of the Environment project.

I used the sinking level of the Sea of Galilee as a metaphor of Israeli society.


The project included a series of Environmental artworks on the island; an exhibition in "Bet Gabriel" Museum, Israel; and a production of a documentary film: "Isola Cactus", about myself, the project, and my Artwork. The documentary was screened at the Cinemateque of Tel-Aviv, 2003.
