Ran Slavin | Installations at the Lepers Colony

A tailored figure with smoke for a head and piercing red eyes moves between stillness and abrupt sound. He confronts the viewer with a speechless dialogue of movement, the representation of the eyes shifts from red electronic dots to gun marks. A scanner scans the space and defines it. The work poses questions about the relationship of the viewer / artist. Who is looking at who? Presented in installation on transparent screen, site specific, forming a holographic hovering image. “Ghost” and “Eyes On You” were first exhibited at The Lepers Colony in Jerusalem and were in dialogue with its bleak history of fear and haunted past. A collaborative project with LEV during the Israel Festival 2013 Exhibited at Hansen House (The Lepers Colony) Jerusalem during – at The Israel Festival
