What is a home? Is there a connection between the material and the spiritual home? Is the concept of home necessarily determined by the presence of another person,objects or memories?
Beyond the personal level, in WildHome the artist will explore the national place of home, the influencethat belonging to a society and country has on the idea of home. What is the difference between the definition of home that someone who grew up inIsrael has, a country that has forever been engaged in a struggle over its home, froma person who grew up in a country that has a different type of war?
