TIME LOOPS AT OCEAN BREEZE PROJECT, ISRAEL

Added on August 3, 2011 by Leah Wolff.

Artists Guy Ben-Ari and Leah Wolff were invited to participate in Ocean Breeze, a public sculpture project in the city of Bat Yam, Israel.
The resulting collaborative piece titled "Time Loops" referred to the ideas of Gilles Deleuze about repetition as part of the human experience, and the cyclical nature of our daily habits.
The installation was meant to be used by the public as a human sundial, when the viewer standing in the center of the installation can tell the time according to the location of their shadow on the ground.

The installation will be open to the public until mid September 2011.
