Created for presentation in a large, darkened space, Oded Ezer's new video installation explores the inner turmoil of a character named “Chris Rock” — part human, part geological formation — as he confronts the tension between emotional vulnerability and stoic permanence.

Each video portrays a moment from a therapy session between “Dr. Adler” and Chris, who is caught in an internal struggle between tenderness and rigidity. The character of Chris proclaims, “I am solid, unyielding. That is my nature,” yet cracks in this narrative begin to surface.

At the center of each of the ten videos appears a unique black, lava rock–like Rorschach blot, each one distinct, evoking a different facet of Chris's inner perspective. Slowly opening in human hands, it sometimes resembles an exposed organ, a kind of “emotional imaging device.”

The installation offers a meditative experience, a window into a frozen consciousness, resistant to change: a “blocked space” shared by both therapist and patient.
