Golden Howls
Solo exhibition at Yarkon Park and Artport in Public Space Curated by Vardit Gross
Golden Howls is an audio and AR (augmented reality) journey through Yarkon Park in Tel Aviv. Participants uncover animations that reveal the story of the golden jackals living in the park. Guided by spatial audio, they walk in the footsteps of the jackals and their cubs, trace the path of the Egyptian jackal god Anubis, and observe various interactions between humans and wildlife living around the park.
