His preference for working with everyday materials based on everyday life experiences is of course profoundly shaped by the precarious nature of daily life in a country perpetually contested by and/or at war with its neighbouring countries, conditions under which the quotidian is quickly and easily transformed into the extraordinary.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUri Tzaig\u003c/strong\u003e maakt conceptueel werk en focust op sport, publiek, dans, taal en spelen.

Het resultaat was dat niet alleen de teams streden voor de overwinning, maar ook de scheidsrechters en omroepers met elkaar in de clinch gingen.
