Dérive

The « Dérive » is based on three different ideas according to three people in the group. Each person was interested in something that gives us the street, people, buildings, and details. Instinctively, we went from East to West and North to South. Thus, the old bus station, is a true center. Of the three parts we deduce a border in the neighborhood of Neve Sha'anan. Between North and South we go from White City to black City. The old bus station is a between two. But it's connected with the south.




« Black City is everything that Tel Aviv doesn’t see and doesn’t want to see: all the scenes that aren’t brought out from the darkroom into the white cube of the museum (…) Black City is the absolute “Other” of Tel Aviv in its embodiment as White City »
