‘Embodiment Chronicles’ is a series of works dealing with human consciousness and its outward manifestation using imaginary characters and unfamiliar landscapes. The work was created collaboratively with contemporary dancers, and filmed in different locations throughout the landscapes of Israel. In cognitive science and philosophy of mind, the concept of ‘embodiment’ emphasizes the essential role the body plays as part of the design of the mind and vice versa. The classic dichotomy of body and mind having long been disintegrated by modern thought. ‘Embodiment Chronicles’ focuses on the possibility of inner change, shedding light on the relationship of mind and body using visual and narrative estrangement.
