POINT OF VIEW
Saron Paz and Matthew Passmore (2018)
Temporary
Pier 27
"Point of View," conceived of by Israeli experience designer Saron Paz and designed by Bay Area artist Matthew Passmore, is a synthesis of art, experience and technology. The project is comprised of two identical sculptures, evocative of lighthouse towers, placed along the waterfront of each city. Within each sculpture is a customized periscope that connects to a camera that captures a live feed view of the other city from across the world and can be controlled by a single viewer and shared by all. This project was made possible by the Haifa Sister City Committee.
Best Viewing: 24/7

Developed by Brookfield Properties, named “Developer of the Year” by the San Francisco Business Times in 2021, the four-acre parcel was previously home to parking lots and underutilized buildings. Now, it has been transformed into a lively community for locals and visitors alike.
