Through the Kibbutz Door

Here is an interesting link to pictures and a brief (and cryptic) description of an art installation based around photos taken of the doors of houses and apartments at Kibbutz Yeraon. I'm not sure if I can make sense of the "art speak" that describes the intent of the piece ("The sculpture points to fraction/collapse of the social ideal, an attempt to reconstruct and to preserve fragments of utopian realm..... A critical reflection – home door as a portrait, the split verge, the individual lacking a proper ideological space"), but it looks like a very creative way to play around with images of kibbutz life in a highly original context.
