This work was made for the domestic space of A.Vermin, a curatorial project in the flat of Alhena Katsof and Benny Merris.


A mahogany mobile hangs above the residents’ bed, alluding to a falling window frame. Opposite, a looped 16mm film of a building played in a wardrobe, with sliding doors left open.


The footage filmed by the US Army in Hiroshima in 1946, looks at evidence of a destroyed building after the Hiroshima A-bomb.


This work juxtaposes different objects and historical references within a domestic space, bringing subjective meaning and creating different narratives for the viewer.
