A Tunnel - an unrealized project
The project was designed for "Fresh Paint 3" art fair in Tel Aviv, 2009, as a special project of Nimrod Reuveni in collaboration with Dani Karavan.
Explanation: Three-dimensional composition, consisting of ready made sewage pipes, concrete cast of pool elements, water, concrete walls, plastic pipe, laser beam and two video projectors.
Sizes: 130x450x70 cm.
The composition reflects a relationship between two Non-symmetric objects on both sides of the tunnel. These objects are communicating through the tunnel and on the other hand they are also blocked on either side (wall, a barrier of water). The relationship between these two objects is not direct. It's mediated by the laser beam which transfers information and provides a sense of connection, such as optical fibers through which communication is carried out today. This connection is virtual or Optional, no real intimacy of touch. Videos of water or a reflection of moving clouds are projected down into two pools of water on the sides. The composition of concrete is Solid and monochromatic. The use of a liquid (water) and rays of light (laser) adds a softening. Colors intensifies the positives context (light, life cycle, transmission of information) as well as the negative contexts (sewage, smuggling, terrorism, military used laser).
