Ebb & Flow Exhibition from the Artist Varda Yatom
Varda Yatom, one of the leading ceramic sculptors in Israel, lives and creates in Kibbutz Sasa in the Upper Galilee. Her work deals with the body as a material that remembers – wounded, clinging, surviving – and the encounter between fracture and movement, memory and time. The installation in the exhibition reveals a body of work that composes a material-metaphorical scene of continuous movement, struggle, and maintaining direction in the face of a world that is in constant motion. Curator, Asia Dublin: “What is not swept away remains engraved within the body within time like a boat without an anchor carries us onward.” Time is not a straight line. It is an irregular breath, a tide that comes even when everything seems quiet. It is a fragment that moves within us – sometimes like a cry, sometimes like a wave that comes without a sound. Within this movement, in a new exhibition, Varda Yatom seeks not to measure time, but to feel it: as matter, as force, as weight in the body. She does not describe a storm, but rather places us within it – so that we feel the tension, the effort to rise, the place where we cling without knowing why. An installation that is a stopping point within a great movement. An invitation to listen – to what is being lost, to what remains. To the time that passes through us like water.
