Object of Desire
Object of Desire is the third chapter in World of Awe, and online travelogue by Yael Kanarek that chronicles a search for lost treasure in a parallel world called Sunset/Sunrise. The project imagines a post-gender and post-national protagonist. Born from an observation that language defines borders and territory on the Internet, Object of Desire examines these borders, as the chapter is written in three languages: English, Arabic and Hebrew.
Challenging the notion of fixed territory, fifteen scenes of the online project download from four servers in Ramallah, Tel Aviv, Izmir and New York
