Dust has penetrated the work of Israeli artists as substance, metaphor, and parable. Examining its elusive nature, fifteen artists contemplate the transience of time and processes of creation and erosion. Their veiled gaze shifts, taking in intimate surroundings as well as the local landscape. The exhibition features painting, photography, installations, and video works from the last ten years.
