In a time defined by political and social tensions, artists Gili Avisar and Tamar Harpaz’s collaborative project holds space for the fragility and vulnerability of everyday life. Their works incorporate elements such as fabric, glass, and light to transform the exhibition space into a mesmerizing choreography of colors, textures, reflections and refractions. While Tamar’s installation is composed of sharp angles and reflective surfaces, Gili presents soft, abstract forms that are tactile extensions of his body. Together they form an intricate narrative where contrasts and engagement become open-ended. The encompassing environment intertwines the corporeal and emotional dimensions of art-making, inviting viewers into a space where material and meaning converge.
