Through his documentation of seemingly neutral or banal environments, Sharon Ya'ari's work engages with the Israeli collective consciousness, exploring the tension between nature and culture, while evoking an uncanny sense of nostalgia and estrangement. Artis and Andrea Meislin Gallery presented a discussion with International Center of Photography senior curator Christopher Phillips and Ya'ari on the occasion of his solo exhibition at the gallery, on view from March 8–April 26, 2014.
