Ran Slavin is an artist working with sound and video as director, composer and improviser, producing audio-visual based screening works as well as video clips and live a/v improvisation. His narratives often undermine urban undercurrents and texture, evolving around dislocations of reality into often surreal dream sequences, where routine bits of reality turn into an invitation to a voyage into hidden territories which coexist with daily reality.
