Entering the inner courtyard of the ancient Hansen House in Jerusalem you can enjoy the unique sensory experience offered by Goren, the installation designed by architect Nati Tunkelrot and designer Guy Mishaly.

Your eyes will be captured by a tree that, in mid-air, extends across the entire area of the courtyard entirely made of ears of wheat that create a sharp contrast with the blue of the sky. Because it is precise to wheat that this work is dedicated, a cereal present in the Middle East in thousands of varieties and which, in recent years, has suffered a sharp halt in production.

The wind, sneaking between one ear and the next will create a pleasant rustle and, closing your eyes, you will feel like you are in the open countryside. Besides the sound, the wind will release all the scent of the grain, the scent of food, the scent of home.

Goren was presented last June at Jerusalem Design Week 2018.
