Sólo Colores
by arkadi zaides and itay weiser
Isabel Cruellas creates delicate and fragile sculptures of plants, made from metal, whose creation involves an especially laborious process. Isabel's sculptures carry within them a testimony of the transformation of matter by the artist: the physically demanding process of working with a hard metal resulting in an outcome which surprises in its soft and delicate qualities.
Iris erez is an experienced dancer and choreographer, with a unique artistic path which is characterized by an exploration of emotional inner worlds, brought forth unto physical expression.
The performance came into being out of a wish to create a dialogue between the two female artists, as well as creating a platform for different disciplines to converge. The piece is an exploration into the process of creation: the inner strength and emotional resources an artist needs to gather in order to create his art, the intense and demanding process which takes place prior to a piece's completion, as well as about an artist's need to publicly show his work to a crowd.
The performance takes place in a white, colourless space, seemingly lifeless. Among the metal plant sculptures, lies a human figure trying to relive past experiences, as if seeking to expose her inner world and confess.
