By mixing mediums, work techniques and knowledge taken from disciplines ranging from chemistry to contemporary photographic techniques, Shapira destroys trivial certainties of time, space and representation and undermines our understanding of appearances. At first glance, the viewer might see it as a representation-documentation of an actual space or time, though in practice, what he sees isn\u2019t a representation but the object itself. Even though his work does not include manipulative Photoshop techniques, the reality seen exists only in the image itself.<br \/>\nOn the other hand, behind the image\u2019s uniqueness hides a dimension of time converted into physical space which never really existed as seen in the image, as if a full length film was compressed into one frame. This is a world in which the only certainty is that it is visual, and as such, leaves a mark upon us and invites the experience to be our guide.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5535,"template":"","categories":[204],"artists":[3676],"exhibition":[3677],"curator":[3678],"years":[494],"class_list":["post-3333","exhibitions","type-exhibitions","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-solo-exhibitions","artists-uri-shapira","exhibition-the-light-seeker","curator-eran-ehrlich","years-2012-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibitions\/3333","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibitions"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/exhibitions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5535"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3333"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3333"},{"taxonomy":"artists","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artists?post=3333"},{"taxonomy":"exhibition","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibition?post=3333"},{"taxonomy":"curator","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/curator?post=3333"},{"taxonomy":"years","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/art.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/years?post=3333"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
