Iconophilia
The expansive terrace that stretches on the roof of the Notre Dame Centre overlooks Eastern Jerusalem - a powerful and coherent image fraught with historical and contemporary associations.It usually serves as a backdrop to the Guesthouse’s restaurant, so we looked at it without seeing or dwelling on its details and significance.
The sound works exhibited on the terrace addressed this state of amplified image, and created moments of attention.
ROOM 325
Hotel rooms are the fixed backdrop for perpetually changing scenes; while guests come and go, the rooms always return to their original state, ready to start over with the next guest.
Room 325 at the Notre Dame Guesthouse hosts performances and art objects for one night. The visitors were invited to spend the evening in room 325, where the scene changed every 30 minutes.
