DESCRIPTION—SOMETIMES A SINGLE QUESTION CAN ENCAPSULATE HISTORICALLY COMPLEX ISSUES. WHERE IS PALESTINE? ASKS THE SIMPLE QUESTION OF WHERE, TO REALLY ASK THE MORE COMPLEX QUESTION OF, WHY NOT? IF ISRAEL EXISTS, WHY DOESN'T PALESTINE? TEXT FORMS WERE CREATED USING 1PT THICK LINES ARRANGED AT 90 DEGREE ANGLES FROM THE GROUND LINES OF EQUAL THICKNESS. THE OPTICAL EFFECT THAT RESULTS IS ONE WHERE TEXT AND GROUND LINES FORM A UNIFORM BLUE WASH WHEN VIEWED FROM AFAR. TEXT IMBEDDED WITHIN THE GROUND BECOMES READABLE ONLY WHEN VIEWED CLOSE UP. © 2012. |
