In this CD-ROM converted to video about the barren and disorientated desert landscape around the Dead Sea, Tzaig re-placed the linear narrative structure by sequences of images that develop on a three-dimensional grid. Uri Tzaig (1965, Kiryat Gat, Israel) is an artist working across several media, including published stories and texts, games, CD-ROMs and video. From 1990 on he presented many solo exhibitions (for instance in Zurich, Luxembourg and Tel Aviv) and group exhibitions (for instance The Venice Biennale).
