The SPIRAL
Ramat-Gan, Israel

It is a work of incomplete precision. Because it is so precise it can’t be really finished. There is no limit to the precision one can achieve.
The Spiral incompleteness is also it's poetry, because poetry is the most precise expression of our need for precision.
Expressive as it is, The Spiral can’t be fully understood. It speaks too many languages at once and the same time.
It speaks Arabic about human condition when sheltered by the high walls. It argues in Hebrew in the sheer necessity to bring the muscles and materials together, but it is quite fluent in Russian when construction becomes architecture. Its Italian is very Baroque, as spoken in Piedmont by Guarino Guarini.
The Spiral is a Tower of Babel in miniature.
