WALK TO THE SEA

Tel Aviv, Israel 2002

I make my way slowly from Rabin Plaza in front of the Tel Aviv City Hall (renamed after his murder there in 1996), towards the sea, dragging a heavy chain of cactus plants – sabras – a plant loaded with symbolism for both parties to the conflict here; I enter the water and the chain of cacti float away into the sea.

The work was performed for the “Day of Simultaneous Actions”, FIX02 Catalyst Arts Performance Festival, Belfast, Northern Ireland.
