With the rise of globalization, the idea that territory is the central component that defines what is common to a nation has lost its power. Governments increasingly lose their autonomy in a stream of cross-governmental and non-governmental organizations, social networks, and multi-national corporations. These conditions generate a new relation between physical space and the nations that occupy it.

Malkit Shoshan and Nirit Peled’s project seeks to untie the knot between territory and people, to scatter national power from a single location to multiple ones, thereby examining Israeli existence as a shared cultural basis rather than a territory. This move takes place through an extensive mapmaking effort and a series of portraits that examine Israeli presence and interests around the world—an exercise that offers a reexamination of the contemporary, non-territorial state of the nation.
