Green Bag in the First Act
The plastic bag and the worldwide efforts to reduce its use have become prominent symbols of the fight for protecting the environment. In the summer of 2021, a vast wildfire burned a large forest area in the Judean Hills nearby Jerusalem. The hot weather contributed to the blaze, while the investigation suggested it was arson. The encounter between the plastic bag and the forest, which also has the role of the stage, is a starting point for visual research on altered landscapes. The scenery of the land, as the leading actor, could not be addressed visually only by realistic imagery in order to understand and expose more profound levels of perceptions. The visual language employed ranges from strait, static shots to more complex ones constructed in a photomontage fashion to convey the complexity of humanobjectnature interactions.
