Sigalit Landau, born in Jerusalem in 1969, often transforms everyday objects into reflections on belonging, labor, and identity. In this work she uses a domestic heater, replacing its heating element with glowing neon words. The object that once offered warmth now emits only light.

The words Home and Work appear in bright letters, their connection both intimate and uneasy. Together they speak of care and endurance, of the tension between the spaces where we live and those where we strive.

By turning a source of comfort into a vessel of meaning, Landau reveals the fragility of warmth itself. The heater no longer serves the body but illuminates the emotional distance between shelter and effort, intimacy and survival.
