Uri Kazenstein’s work Hope Machines, which served as the point of departure for this compilation, invited me to look at the video archive of the Center for Contemporary Art through the lens of post-apocalyptic states—wondering whether what seems like the end of the world might actually be a pre-creation moment: the beginning of something new. It is from this proposition that the selected works in the program were chosen.

The program includes works by: Avi Dabach, Eliyahu Fatal, Jasmine Kainy, Uri Katzenstein, Ruth Patir, Nira Pereg, and Dafna Shalom.

Curated by: Luma Abu Wardy

Admission: Free, as part of the "To: The Field" festival events
