We draw a horizon to initiate a world. Once one is divided into a heaven and an earth, things grow. This horizon written-drawn with the name Sunset/Sunrise, proposes a vertical motion. In the scene 'Redo' in Object of Desire (chapter 3), the traveler writes: "Later, succumb to the immense, saffron light, this world of perpetual sunset or sunrise . . . I name it Sunset/Sunrise." The act of naming is intertwined with the act of writing-drawing; tongue and hand.
The horizon is formed with English, Hebrew and Arabic. In English, sunset and sunrise point to a human-centric perspective—in actuality, the sun neither rises nor sets. In Arabic, the words are derived from the words east (ghoroob) or west (shorooq). In Hebrew the words translate into shine (zrikha) and submerge (shki3a).
