Noga Gallery is happy to present Rami Maymon’s solo exhibition featuring 20 photographs in the main space and an object in the Project Room.

The exhibition hovers between two images of a diver and a bee – two words that create a surrealistic, tragic or perhaps impossible relationship. The bee represents the element of air – organized and rationalistic, connected with thinking and spreading knowledge. The diver, on the other hand, represents the longing for depths, and the element of water, associated with the formless world of senses. Both constantly search for something meaningful. The space of the artist exists between those two polar images.

The works in the exhibition have an air of exploration, yearning for discovery. The photographs’ surface tempts the eye of the viewer. Objects and subjects appear, then sink and drown in the misty, black, almost material liquid. They are timeless, space-less, soundless; they mark the boundary between the Apollonian surface of the photograph – formal mask or informative description – and the inner, emotional, Dionysian space, searching for the essence.
