"Kalab", an exhibition of works by Israeli designer Ezri Tarazi, takes the form of a living room created from the materials and vernacular of war. A couch takes the form of sandbag fortifications, a lamp recreates army truck tires, shelves are made from ammunition boxes and a coffee table resembles the earth as seen from unmanned drones.
