Kunsthalle Galapagos in Brooklyn – New York is pleased to present“The Sota Project”, an immersive, multilayered video installation that reenacts a controversial text from the Talmud. A tale of two sisters, bound together in symbiotic loyalty, that unfolds in both time and three-dimensional space.
Housed in an expansive, historic horse-stable above Galapagos Art Space, opened in September 2010, Ofri Cnaani’s ambitious piece, after 5 years of intense and amazing work, invites viewers to step into room-sized moving panoramas, and walk through an enigmatic and disturbing ancient story, that has hardly been told.
Sota, an anonymous Biblical story, recounts the tale of two sisters, Sota and Bekhorah, who are bound together in symbiotic loyalty when Sota’s husband accuses her of infidelity. Against a backdrop of jealousy, betrayal, judgment, ritual humiliation, and ultimately death, Cnaani’s installation depicts a deceptively simple moral parable, that unfolds in countless ways.
Ofri Cnaani is born in Israel in 1975 and she’s currently living in New York, working in time-based media.
