Rivka Levi
Artist Bio
The starting point of my work is photography, but I use it to sculpture with several other media, such as video art, collage and photographed paper. All those are my material to create voluminous works by using various technologies: static photography or its dismantling and recomposing to create a new reality and presentations. The works represent the memory of my inner world, a mixture of reality and imagination, my homeland scenery, a reflection of panorama, sensations and feelings which are the images of my raw material.
In video art I sculpture the photographs per se, capturing a moment of strength and power dismantling nature’s forces, enabling the movement and its destructive meanings to undermine our confidence. The works are a reflection of how an adult perception of childhood ideology based on homeland scenery and its symbols.
