“Fault ” is a sculptural audiovisual performance in which Nadav Assor creates multi-layered images on an overhead projector, performing various acts of “excavation” directly on its surface. Though the process involves adding rather than removing material, it gradually reveals underlying structures, substances, and memories—both real and imagined. Using a range of techniques, Assor invites the audience to observe the process of visual investigation, as images take shape and dissolve before their eyes.

The performance will be broadcast live to both festival venues from Providence, Rhode Island, creating a sense of shared presence.

Nadav Assor (b. 1979) lives and works in Providence, Rhode Island and in Israel. He holds a BFA from the Art Institute at Beit Berl and an MFA in Art from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC), USA. He currently teaches at Connecticut College and serves as Director of the Ammerman Center for Arts and Technology. He is an affiliate of the Open Documentary Lab at MIT.
Assor works with installation, performance, video, and sound, creating layered, polyphonic, and embodied audiovisual environments that explore intimacy and connection between individuals and between people and their environments through technological interfaces. His works have been shown internationally in venues dedicated to art, film, documentary video, and experimental music. His video works are distributed by the Video Data Bank in Chicago.

Daniel Davidovsky (b. 1965, Argentina) is a musician and sound artist who has been living and working in Israel since 1989. Davidovsky specializes in free improvisation and the creation of rich soundscapes using soprano saxophone and electronic instruments. His work is marked by an expressive approach that combines deep exploration of textures and tonal shades, emerging from attentive listening and a dialog with both material and conceptual environments. He has performed at festivals and events in Israel and abroad and collaborates with artists from the fields of music, dance, and visual art.
