Liora Kaplan: The Lighthouse is Dark Between Flashes

February 3 - April 9, 2023

The Lighthouse is Dark Between Flashes is the first solo exhibition in the United States for Tel Aviv-Yafo based artist Liora Kaplan. Through the process of unearthing found ceramic containers from her home region in Israel and combining them with new elements made from materials including wood, leather, metal, glass, and stone, Kaplan crafts towering sculptures that stand as beacons for finding a way through the collective uncertainty of life amid recurring wars, culture clashes, and between the ebbs and spikes of a global pandemic.
