Years: 2023

This chapter of Adam-Haya drawings deals with the essence of our collective subconscious storage. The Adam-Haya drawings are created following my monthly encounter with the wild animals at the physical landmark of the Liquid Desert project, which I have been working on for the last eight years. It focuses on the representation processes of physical and actual artworks, as opposed to their metaphysical counterparts in a parallel virtual space. The project is formulated as an underground architectural site that is virtually located in a physical landmark - Abraham’s Path in the Negev Desert in southern Israel and consists of 49 hidden rooms spread across three underground levels that are located below the visible surface.

I engage in communication with an animal that I fear and refrain from, and that regularly arrives at the site itself. Usually, the reaching animals are jackals, hyenas, wild boars, and wolves, which are documented by a field camera that constantly transfers data.
The broadcasting of the field cameras to the studio during the night, and the information it consists of, allow me to draw with the coal on soft fabrics the resonance field, or alternatively, the information that cannot be formulated through language, and that which leaves its traces and marks on the canvas.

Adam-Haya Drawings were created in the last years on paper and bare fabrics using charcoal. Drawing without a line allows me to present the active subconscious resonance field in which I am interested. It is in fact a drawing of language and subconscious information, which the act of coal drawing manages to convey. Using soft materials, I chose to represent the unspoken matter that the animal communicates and transmits during the night time while wandering in the desert site.
