I've added a gallery of my Eye of Beholder interactive installation's guest appearance at the Independent Journalism Convention in Tel Aviv, on January 30th.
This was a chance to hang all 279 memorial press name tags for #gaza #journaliats slain since #oct7 2023.
Thanks to @neo for arranging this with the convention's organizers, as well as manually filling the name tags of reporters killed during the current ceasefire ( #שלום_על_ישראל ).
Today, 19:00-14:00, during the Independent Journalism conference, my #EoB installation ( https://photos.nandn.org.il/eob ) will be displayed in the lobby.
It took 5 and a half hours (more than the time it will be publicly displayed) to install it, but for the first time we can see *all* 278 #MemorialNameTags and [at least for me] it's overwhelming to look at.
The last 8 (7 of which were filled during the #שלום_על_ישראל ceasefire, 3 of which were killed on Monday) were manually filled by @neo
Egyptian Relief Committee and AFP slam Israeli attack that killed three journalists in Gaza
The #MemorialNameTags we did at #EoB were printed until the #ceasefire. The rest – @neo filled by hand.
#NoLongerSameWorld is over, but I hope we'll soon find where to display them, including nametags for Mohammad Salah Qishta, Abdul Raouf Samir Shaat and Anas Ghanem

Finished preparing #MemorialNameTags for the 272 #gaza #journalists killed since #oct7tragedy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_journalists_killed_in_the_Gaza_war#Palestine
The last two were written by hand because the trigger finger is quicker than the printing press.
You can download a PDF of these name-tags at https://photos.nandn.org.il/piwigo/picture.php?/909/category/29
I'm participating in a group exhibition called "For me, This is No Longer the Same World" [ Hebrew page: https://is.gd/nolongersameworld ].
My work there is called "Eye of Beholder" [ https://is.gd/eyeofbeholder ] — an installation dealing with slain #gaza #journalists.
At #EoB's preview page you'll also find a PDF of #MemorialNameTags for the first 270 journalists slain, and empty name-tags you can fill with a pen (because there are more *already*).
Already wrapped half (~150).
