With distance, we lose perspective.
High above the earth, we see things as they are.
From up there the holy land is naked.
She exists free from dogma and ideology.
Free from old opinions and agendas.
I hope you forget what you know and,
for a short while, your opinions as well.
I hope you will see Israel out of context,
and reclaim your land.
The project aims to create an unreservedly positive experience of Israel, an experience which is completely divorced from politics or ideology. The project envisions shapes and landscapes that transport the viewer through space and time, bringing an unforgettable piece of Israel anywhere around the globe.
