Boxes
Alluding to an empty nightclub, the piece contains six plywood boxes of different sizes resembling a casually-arranged sound system. Powerful, loud, energetic music and natural soundscapes emanate from within the empty boxes, inviting viewers to engage with the work: to touch, stand inside, and crawl into the display. The music flows as if from a void, with each box playing a layer of a recorded live set by Possibilities of Milk—the new band comprising of musicians Haggai Fershtman, David Lemoine, Daniel Meir and Maya Dunietz, recorded in Kibbutz HaOgen in Israel for the purpose of this work. This unusual combination of visual minimalism and auditory maximalism creates a strong presence of void.
