Mosh Kashi’s solo exhibition includes an impressive body of work created from Kashi’s consistent pictorial research in recent years. For the first time, we witness a sharp color turn that goes beyond the color scale that characterized Kashi’s previous works, along with a shift to panoramic and round formats – moves that lead the show to new realms.

The exhibition includes meticulous oil painting and subjects that have become identified with Kashi’s themes, the nature and the universe in all its cosmic elements: the cycles and the one-off events captured in the painting, like a photographic snap-shot.

The constant tension between the trivial and the sublime in Kashi’s paintings receives additional expressions in these works, in which a large-scale universe converges into circular formats with refined color palette where only a tiny glimmer of light from the darkness indicates the possibility of an infinite space around. In the large-scale works, a reversal – a tiny horizon point becomes a monumental panorama.

The large and small formats complement each other and merge into a harmonious show in the exhibition space, creating the possibility of capturing the random and the ephemeral into a pictorial reality. Kashi’s perception of painting is an open invitation to an imagined encounter between the viewer’s consciousness and the painting mystery.

The painting presents the “outward appearance of the self-centered inner life” *

The monochromatic painting, reduced in colour, tending towards abstract minimalism is the symbol of material erasure and spirituality. it allows a deeper reflection and an inward observation.

For the exhibition, single coloured works in a variety of tonal shades were chosen. most of them are in lack of an image, or it may appear hidden or disguised.

Although each of the participating artists works in a different method, the reduction of means offers a quiet, focused uniformity, free of noise, converging into silence.
