YEHUDIT SASPORTAS – VERTICAL SWAMPS HAMAKOM
2016-03-07The exhibition will include a group of works on paper, the video piece The Light Workers, based 150 manual drawings, and a series of large 3 dimensional / sculptural drawings. Yehudit Sasportaas work with unusual landscape drawings which function as maps of mental data outlines. Data from her personal life become anonymous fragments of information integrated into a wider and more complex sphere. The body of work itself deals with the meeting of the physical, structural, material and the weightless, ethereal and metaphysical dimension. One dimension merging with the other is an essential part of Sasportas’ artistic attitude. The new Vertical Swamp works, created for this exhibition, consists of large drawings on wooden planks. Particles of a foreign material have penetrated and imprinted the surface of the works, representing a penetration of subconscious or foreign information from an invisible sphere into a visible. Yehudit Sasportas wishes to place the spectator in a both reflexive as well as conceptual mirror field which exposes the structure of the personal conciusness and it placement within the collective sphere.
