Beirut’s signscape is wildly populated by projections into a safer future, a rhetoric centered around private ownership, overseas investment, catastrophe insurance and the commodification of nationality. With these billboards we’re reminded of a past that’s projected onto a shinier future. We understand rest, sleep, and pleasure to be acts of resistance through which we can uncover schizophrenic narratives. Disrupting the advertising sequence is aimed at halting the aggressive noise for a short while, to rest in rebellion, to rest elsewhere away from the speculative future drawn on and for us.
