The side and remote views and perspectives, which are not accessible to the human eye, expose the architectural mechanism of the display space. The art on view thus becomes secondary – the eye passes through corridors and wings, focusing on an exhibit for a brief moment and moving on to the next one.

Yonatan Ron strives to illustrate the perception that has changed in our encounter with art, as well as in relation to everything that had seemed sacred to us in the past: where the artistic aura had diminished and the interaction between the audience and the museum space has become, in a way, one of many consumption experiences, a network-dependent experience in essence - in which the exhibition space itself perishes and in which exhibits are slowly losing their meaning and turn into a setting.
