Portal para Kaph

Curator: Luciana Solano

Portal para Kaph is an installation of 25 silkscreens developed from layered photographs of parts of the body. Suspended between transparent acrylic sheets by nylon threads, the works occupy different depths in the room. From the front, body fragments overlap into a dense image. From the side, the distances between planes become visible. As the viewer moves, bodies, gaps and alignments continuously shift.

The Hebrew letters Alef, Bet and Kaph are embedded in the process that generated the silkscreens. The installation becomes a physical passage through space, toward Kaph.
