An inflatable black swan represents this unique equation and contradiction.\nA strange combination between a refugee boat and an inflatable animal raises the question of whether we are truly aware of the dramatic immigration crisis, or is it the black animal we prefer to ignore.\n\nBlack Swan is a metaphor used to illustrate the failure of observation-based knowledge. For example, before the discovery of Australia it was clear that the color of the swans was white. One single observation of a black swan in Australia has been able to refute established and long-standing knowledge of the swan's white color.\n\nThe concept of the Black Swan is used by philosopher and economist Nasim Taleb to demonstrate our inability to predict the unexpected, prepare and respond to it in time. The Black Swan, according to Taleb, is something that is outside the scope of normal expectations, something that has an extreme impact, and that only after the eruption can it be possible to try and explain explanations of its occurrence.","space":"the object dimentions are 5\/1.8\/1.5 Meters\nit requires a space on the floor but can be presented also hanging from the ceiling","artists_proposal":null,"members":[],"lang":"en","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":null,"audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"fileCount":5,"names":"neil nenner","surname":"avihai mizrahi","email":"neilnenner1@gmail.com","dni_type":"Other","dni":"033648684","address":"Tel hai street 22 B \/6","city":"raanana","nacionality":"israel","country_id":"112","birthdate":"1977-02-21T22:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1977-02-21T22:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+972526671220","web":"neilnenner.com"}
