Healing

In her exhibition, Healing, curated by J. Susan Isaacs, PhD, Israeli artist Ariane Littman addresses the complex situation in Israel through a vocabulary of maps and related performance works. Her site-specific installation at the DCCA combines three major elements: an operating table with medical instruments; the “patient,” a collaged map of the ‘Holy Land’ made of bandages stitched together with green thread; and a video trilogy. Through these pieces, Littman hopes to transcend what she views as the ‘wound’ resulting from a pathology of chronic violence.
