This work deals with the moments prior to the start of Shabbat on Friday afternoon, alongside the time when the stars slowly appear in the sky and indicate when Shabbat is over. The work is displayed in conjunction with 143 Hours (Shabbat Clock), in which this transition time is visible for only a few seconds every week. Twilight attempts to cling to the gentle qualities of the transition time that occurs every week – the waning light, the different rhythm, the peacefulness – and make them last forever.
