Life in the Generation Ship is a 360-degree 3D rendering video installation, projected onto a dome. The dome visualizes five out of the ten Sefirot-based spheres of the ship: Bridge, Heritage, Agriculture, Public Space, and Recycling. The immersive installation amalgamates reality and fiction, allowing visitors to behold life on the futuristic spaceship. Part of Bartana’s method of pre-enactment, the spheres depict- ed within the installation—each representing a different aspect of the spaceship's functioning society—are designed to invite reflection on both historical and futuristic narratives. The dome itself is not merely a projection surface but a deliberate architectural choice that brings to mind the symbolic significance of domes in places of worship.
