The Fifth Facade

In 'The Fifth Facade', Gafni combines several antennas skeletons, at various degrees of exhaustion, into one large body.
The large endangered metal body, hanged upside-down from the ceiling, invades into the gallery space and allows intimate meeting with it.
Beside it, three wooden frames, seemingly empty, collecting the hidden electro-magnetic field at the gallery space, a background noise we are not able to sense.
The electro-magnetic field is transform into vibration, which vibrate through the metal body, making endless rustles and noises, reanimating the antennas metal body.
