A monumental work, made of pieces and pallets of wood in various sizes and painted in diverse rainbow colors by the Japanese artist Kushida. These are, in fact, two works of art that have been joined together by Ilana Goor and hung with perfect correlation to the shape of ancient wall of the building and two arches leading to another space. Ilana Goor specifically chose the work of this Japanese artist as this is an extraordinary deviation from art defined as minimalist and even ascetic in the area in which the artist grew up. Goor, who espouses separation, salience and uniqueness, chose to dedicate a special and prominent position for this art work and it has been selected as one of the first works of art that visitors to the Museum encounter when entering the building. The work awards the surrounding area with a type of injection of color which stimulates the imagination and arouses the sense of vision to the maximum.
