Video installation: DVD, 45 min, 3 screens. Performance: 8 performers, costumes, furniture, and divers props. Performance duration: 75 min. A year after our public wedding project (performance and installation, Rotterdam,2001) we, Gil & Moti duo artists born and raised in Israel, have decided to fall in love with an Arab guy as a contemporary form of political marriage. The idea originates in the common belief that love can overcome all obstacles and bridges between the hostile people. It is long term project, which generates major changes in our family life. Laylah the Creature Beyond Dreams is a video installation for three screens unfolds in image, sound and text our first love story with a Lebanese man. With recorded letters, photographs, video documentation, e-mails, SMSes, paintings, diary entries, etc., we take the viewer through highlight moments from the day we met our lover through a dating site on the Internet, our joint life and the intensive relationship we've had for a year. With Laylah the Creature Beyond Dreams we expose the complex of living the artistic concept and its consequence. |
