Gohar Dashti Work from Land/s. “Regardless of who we are, our lives are layered and richly textured with physical and figurative uprooting(s) and migrations.

Mishka Henner Work from Evaporation Ponds. “Evaporation Ponds presents the dazzling geometries of waste reservoirs created by natural gas production. Seen from above, their glowing expanses resemble luminous abstractions, recalling Colour Field painting or celestial photographs.

Ilanit Illouz Work from The Memory of Landscape. “For me, Ilanit Illouz is not an artist but an archaeologist.
