DONKEY WALK AND CACTUS PULL

Kibbutz Naan, Israel 2006

I carefully bind myself to the wall of cacti.

I lead a donkey, dragging a chain of eucalyptus bark with plastic irrigation parts from a local factory, along a path bordering the huge wall of cactus plants that divides the kibbutz from the open fields. The walk is a journey through on a fast disappearing landscape, infused with collective nostalgia.

The work was carried out at the Live Art Festival, Kibbutz Naan, Israel.
