Nomadic Souls: Being Singular Plural
The exhibition "Nomadic Souls: Being Singular Plural", is a collaboration between the KAKDELART community and Nefashot and marks the inaugural event of the "Nomadic Souls" project. The exhibition is curated by Vera Gailis, independent art curator, art historian and lecturer.
Explore contemporary art addressing immigration to Israel with a focus on the psychological aspects. Artists form a mosaic reflecting the personal and collective experiences of immigrants from Poland, Argentina, England, France, and the former Soviet Union.
The title "Being Singular Plural" draws inspiration from Jean-Luc Nancy's philosophical reflections on community and existence. Symbolizing the intricate interplay between personal stories and broader social fabric, the exhibition serves as a bridge connecting different narratives, resonating deeply with layers of identity, memory, and belonging.
Notably, the exploration of the immigration theme "Being Singular Plural" is expressed through a series of works and pieces with recurring patterns and symbols, providing diverse understandings of the migration experience documented over time. This exhibition goes beyond typical immigration narratives, delving into authentic experiences, challenges, and memories shaping the lives of those with immigration experiences.
