'Aliyah Market' /2014 

Duo-Exhibition with Ishai Shapira Kalter

STA Gallery, Tel-Aviv.

 

Hacmon creates a hyper-realistic installation by constructing a dark and improvised Eritrean bar on Aliyah Street, a street that lacks these kinds of bars. Through this radical action, he expands the occurrence boundaries of those bars in the Tel Aviv landscape. Hacmon converts the gallery into a temporary business which provides a glimpse to the anomaly of a place.

The feeling that sweeps the bar invites the viewer to visit the domestic surrounding of the Eritrean service-giver, which functions as an asylum from the hostile Israeli citizen.
