الجار قبل الدار “The Neighbour
before the House” is a series of video probes into the landscape of East
Jerusalem. Shot with a CCTV security camera, these images show that before and after instrumental "surveillance", there is inquisitiveness, jest,
memory, desire and doubt that pervades the project of watching. A voice finds an image, an image is probed beneath its surface, thoughts withdraw or rebound.In these specific times and places, camera movements and live commentary become ways in which Palestinian residents evaluate what can be seen, and speak about the nature
of their distance from others.
60 mins, SD CCTV video and sync audio.
Filmed in 2009 and edited into this film in 2011.
Opening Show of the Palestinian Museum

Born in experimentation and uncertainty, black boxes of machines and institutions surround us with seemingly smooth and impenetrable functions. But reintroduce the uncertainty, reopen the conflicts, and the box appears stable in neither form nor function.
Twelve works by CAMP look out through the interior worlds of cameras, memory devices, surveillance systems and more, developing feelings and strategies along with them.
