Home(?)
A work which becomes validated by the viewer’s gaze




In an era of digital technologies, when the lack of physical intimacy and the consumption of false online presentations become our daily life standard, Oryan Yohanan explores how individual and autonomic actions of different characters can co-exist in a shared space. Home(?) presents a futuristic, post-apocalyptic possibility, where the relationships between the characters in a no man's land can only receive its meanings through the viewer’s presence.
From the press:
"Many times, the end goal of the artist is to create a shock, or throw the viewer into chaos to then create their own personal world of images for them. If so, the feeling of alienation and uncanniness definitely came through. Home(?) presents a futuristic, post-apocalyptic possibility, i.e. in a world of utter chaos, after a catastrophe. The feeling of alienation and dis-communication arises throughout most of the piece. As mentioned, firstly there is a tenderness, and unity of opposites towards the end, though everything is frail after the destruction. A unique and original piece.” - Michal Doron "Where the Wind Blows
