video stills
2018
I went on a virtual walk on Google street view through Haifa and took a video screenshot. The overlaps and deformation of perspectives are particularly interesting to me. I eyed the sky rather than the streets. During my research about Haifa and its history somehow get similar imaginative pictures. Many angles, many narratives, many incoherencies, but also many overlaps.
I record conversations with people who are related to Haifa, the birthplace of my grandfather. While investigating into my own family history, I listen to other people's stories. The image that I get about Haifa becomes more and more complex, multilayered and real. Many questions about politics and power structures arise. I discuss these subjects with my counterparts to learn more about reality and understand in what ways the past is connected to the present.
