Wall No. 2 (Times of Implosion)  — Group exhibition
Yona Fischer homage exhibition Reading Materials
Kupferman Collection, Kibbutz Lohamei HaGeta'ot

Curator : Irit Carmon Popper
2018

Wall No. 2 (Times of Implosion) is a site-specific sculpture created for the exhibition Reading Materials, conceived as a tribute to the curator Yona Fischer. The project emerged from a research into a fourth-century Byzantine tomb located only a few metres from the Kupferman Collection, yet closed to the public.
During the process, the death of my grandmother transformed the sculpture. Its cavity gradually contracted to the scale of her body, shifting the archaeological reference towards a space of passage shaped by mourning and memory.
During the performance Each Body Has Its Own Matter, the sculpture was opened to the public, who were invited to pass through it and experience the relationship between their own body, space and memory.
