Horse House Hat, 2008, multi-channel video installation, loop

Gili Avissar creates a video collage spinning a theatrical story between several screens whose protagonists are a cowboy, a horse, and a clown. The use of heroic figures drawn from romance assumes an absurd effect due to the creative and frugal means by which she constructs the vague, fragmentary story with a syntax oscillating between the theater of the absurd and a children’s game.
