This steel globe, approximately the size of a person’s height and arm span, tilts at the same angle as the earth with its continents traced in red neon. The cage-like structure and fierce glow present our world as a universal danger zone, powerfully evoking global conflicts, border tensions, and the climate emergency. 

With thanks to Mona Hatoum and her studio and The David and Indrė Roberts Collection.
