Gallery Bush Talk

An outdoor gallery, where nature is placed on a pedestal that marvels at things just as they are. We handed out simulated magnifying glasses

to focus on what the eye sometimes doesn’t linger on.

I collected “a cabinet of wonders” – display cases full of simple treasures foraged in the forest, through minor interventions that weave

seemingly natural and effortless connections to more mechanical intervention and the introduction of foreign materials into the natural ones.

 

During the performance, the elegant gallerist took off her trousers, planted herself in the ground, and with the help of the forest's medicinal

herbs, transformed herself into a "bush" in the gallery. שיח גלריה The Hebrew term for Gallery Talk also meaning Gallery Bush.
