Ornament and Crime explores the visual relation between two types of barriers that are often found together. The red and white tape, usually wrapped around metal barricades in synergy, becomes an ornament, while the polyester mold of a barricade acts as its surface, hanging on the wall, unable to accomplish its original function.Meanwhile, replacing the police sign usually placed on the barricade, is a mold replica of the Jewish symbol of the menorah, as it appears in the official logo of the State of Israel.
