ONCE THERE WAS A GRAVE HERE, 2021
HD Video-Performance, 8'00"
Sound by: Nir Jacob Younessi
(Filmed Jaffa, Israel, 2012)
Filmed in the Jaffa area in 2012, the video unfolds in a single continuous top-angle shot. A man and a woman enter the street and lie down on the exposed ground. After a moment of stillness, the woman rises and leaves, while the man remains motionless. The action takes place above an archaeological excavation site, where traces of the past linger beneath the surface.
