The space is dark.
One copy machine, one standard piece of paper, glow-in-the-dark paint and a brush.The lid of the copy machine is open and it’s going to stay that way for the duration of the event. A brushstroke is applied to one piece of paper, crossing it horizontally. The paint is wet. When the paper is placed on the machine it’s done without touching the scanning surface – a few millimeters above the glass so as not to leave a trace.Once the copy button is pressed, the scanning light briefly illuminates the space, and charging the glow-in-the-dark paint. A copy is made. Let’s call it: Copy no. 1. The original piece of paper is placed aside. It glows in the dark space.Now a glow-in-the-dark brushstroke is applied to Copy no. 1, which is then placed on the copy machine – without touching its scanning surface. A flash of light illuminates the space once more as the scan-charge-copy happens. The glowing Copy no. 1 is placed next to the original piece of paper.This repetitive process continues, as a sequence of drawings emerges. Each one depending on its predecessor. Each in its own fading countdown. The last copy remains with no glow-in-the-dark layer on it: the promise of an infinite process.

The series of collages is made from found images, each presents a landscape featuring a weeping willow tree in it. The intervention is minimal yet effective: the tree’s top is cut out and flipped around, turning the branches of the weeping willow tree upside down.

An isolated phrase from Hebrew poet Leah Goldberg’s poem There is No Mercy reads: “Years go by and more words are forbidden”. Due to its isolation, the origin of this prohibition remains unclear: is this an internal interdiction imposed by the speaker (the poet or the artist), or perhaps an external one?This work first appeared in my solo show Durational Boundaries as part of a series of solo exhibitions celebrating the 50^thanniversary of the ICA in Philadelphia. The sentence was inscribed into the exhibition’s wall, performing as part of the exhibition structure, it confronts its own unstable and fragile content.Later that year, another version appeared in the exhibition Dark Times where the sentence was written by hand in Hebrew onto the page of a Moleskine notebook I have used in recent years as a personal journal

The installation consists of three paper stacks, which invite viewer to take a sheet. On each is printed one of the pairs in the title. The stacks are positioned throughout the space so that “TOO LATE” is the last, thereby guiding the viewer through the space to face each proposition singularly.The impetus for the work came from a found record featuring on one side a song called Too Much, Too Little, Too Late and on the other Emotion; two sides of the same single. The resulting sculpture inevitably changes, diminishing in height and weight throughout the course of the exhibition.

While temporarily residing in Pittsburgh as an exchange art student from Paris, I responded to an open call to participate in an exhibition at the Andy Warhol Museum: “Submissions are open to all artists from the Pittsburgh region with the guideline that all works have to be exactly 12 x 12 inches”. With these generic guidelines in mind, I printed and submitted my up to date Curriculum Vitae, including a line mentioning the exhibition in question. A one of a kind piece, signed and placed in a customized-made frame. My piece was rejected: “we appreciate your interest, and wish you success in your future artistic endeavours”.Nevertheless, the title of the work comprises the name and creation date of the document, type and size (digital format), media and size (physical material).
