No man's light

In this body of work, I go out into the desert - the Negev, the Arava, or the Judean desert - on dark, moonless nights and photograph the primeval landscapes using long exposures, ranging from half an hour to an hour each.

The only sources of light that illuminate the landscape and make photography possible are the light of the stars, the headlights of the transport trucks climbing the distant roads, and the pollution of light coming from distant military bases and the towns tens of kilometers away from me. Nature is dark, too dark to be photographed, and the artificial light, the truck headlights, is all that is burned onto the photographic film, as colored stripes.
