Created by multi-media artist Uri Dotan and photographer Elinor Milchan, the T Squared Project is an Architectural Video Intervention composed of multiple panels of motion. Envisioned as public art, the context of how and where the T Squared Project is shown is as important as the content of the work.
The artists’ vision is to wrap architectural structures with large-scale projections in order to redefine the functionality of the space and the environment in which we live in, thereby changing the role of buildings from containers into monumental video sculptures.
This series of moving images reflecting Time Square and its kinetic energy, proposes insights into divergent, convergent and parallel times, forking and breaking off, and embracing at once a view of past, present, and future. With the cubist concept in mind, the artists sliced reality in multiple facets, offering a spatial rather than linear experience of time.
The major installation scheduled for May 2007 at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem will interact with the facades of the museum itself as well as with the outside facade of the Shrine of the Book. These images of Time Square will interplay with the peculiar and symbolic shape of this sanctuary of ancient religious texts, creating a new dialogue between time and culture.
