Weights/ Dimension No. 8

Lung. Saw. Mandrakes. Weight. Purple. Fractal. Light.

The exhibition presents an installation combining painting and sculptural objects.

The painting, created using mixed media on wood, is built from layers of transparent material, color, and graphite drawing. It is based on a personal archive of hand drawings that have been digitally processed.

The image of the mandrake, a toxic plant with mystical fertility properties in Jewish tradition, disassembles across the surface of the painting.

The idea of toxic fertility reverberates—both as an experience seeping out of contemporary reality and as an essence of creation: a transformation of something from something else, a process of proliferation from the smallest unit to the monumental.

The sculptural works begin as paintings on fabric, which are then stitched with surgical thread, cut into segments, and transformed into pockets filled with hot, colored wax. Once the material hardens, it is sliced open lengthwise.

The fabric becomes skin, and the medium of painting acquires a bodily quality—like flesh.
