The series HOME FRONT was created in light of the Second Lebanon War (2006), dealing  with the internal evacuation of localities in initial emergency situations. in such situations, civilians move independently to a massive fortified building close to their homes, as their family homes are color-coded on evacuation maps. Each map represents an aspiration for a primary physical order in a situation that may be chaotic. 

In Saifan’s works, neatly piled memo notes in glowing colors turn the original paper maps of the security departments into a 3D architectural model. The use of a specific lighting design in the studio gives the objects a digital appearance although there wasn’t any digital manipulation. The first work from HOME FRONT was purchased for the Herzliya Museum of contemporary Art 2019.
