Military Exercise in the Negev Prison
Military Exercise in the Negev Prison

Storyline

Screened and experienced in an enclosed space in the gallery, this work consists of the sound of the invasion of the Naqab prison, and a translated text of the exchange between prisoners and soldiers. Thousands of Palestinians political prisoners are held in the Neqab prison, a great number without charge, trial, or access to legal rights, family visits, health, or education services. The work is based on highly censored footage recorded by soldiers and obtained by court order of a military training exercise carried out in the prison after midnight in a day in 2007 by one of Israel's elite military units while prisoners were asleep.
