Roads

This exhibition included a geometric wooden structure painted in industrial colors with integrated mirrors. The effect of movement was created by means of many shades of a single color on the background of a complementary color and through mirrors which reflected the face of the passer-by, thus giving the illusion of movement.

The exhibition expressed the view of looking at life as intersections of various roads. Our lives flash by with the intent to achieve something in the distance – abstract and usually unattainable, replete with obstacles, struggles, and ups and downs.

A description of the way the modern world struggles is expressed in the game between the shapes and colors and through their symbolism. The war of survival is expressed in the struggle between the rigid squares and the flexible circles – an angular triangle as opposed to a circle with a soft line such as in the picture to the left, [“Man Road,” 1982 64×64 cm]. In the picture to the right [“Contrasts” 1981, 68×70 cm] the game is played out between the colors and their complementary colors, which give the feeling of physical rejection due to their close proximity to each other, which, in turn, creates an experience of tension and excitement.
