About
Nitsan Ben Zimra (b.1996) based in Tel Aviv, Israel.
One of the main questions Nitsan Ben Zimra deals with is: what’s left? The immediate urge is to hold on to everything tight, but things fade away, leaving signs like emotion or a vague association.
Ben Zimra takes these memories and tries to place them within a space. Get to know them by drawing, or figure out what echo they can make when they stand apart from context. Each medium preserves something different in memory. The connection between them, the installation, produces thin threads through which one can feel united with the works.
