Dusk

Inspired by Dahlia Ravikovitch’s poem The Land of the Setting Sun, the exhibition Dusk moves between mythical and utopian realms and the disillusionment of confronting a reality of violence and destruction. The works of Nelly Agassi, Ruthie Agassi, and Moshe Roas point to a twilight zone between mythos and logos, between longing and the loss of faith. They create a passionate poetics of visual, material, and linguistic imagery, characterised by astronomical motifs of light and sun, real and imagined geographies, and journeys, both real and fantastical, through time and space.
