Dothan spent a month at Vermont Studio Center editing a new video work, The Wandering Israeli (2019). The project began in a trip to Germany to film an experiment in identities, where Dothan wanted to examine the ability of an Israeli person, a descendant of the wandering Jew, to abandon the stronghold of the “dream come true” homeland that is Israel, and start wandering again.
Shasha Dothan, I’d rather escape to American escapism, 2018, four-channel video Installation, drawings, paintings, and carpet.
