<\/a><\/p>\nPassersby, people on the train, women who meet during walks, passengers on the bus \u2013 others and strangers are the inspiration for Maya Shleifer\u2019s series of works, which explores the world of familiar strangers as she imagines it.
\nIn the exhibition, Maya\u2019s illustrations gain another dimension through various techniques: from mythological devices that hark back to the early days of cinema like Zoetrope to physical computing. The installations in the exhibition hold a dialogue with the world of pop up books and incorporate projections of moving images and static illustrations in varying degrees of interactivity. The space in which Maya\u2019s images are scattered echo the world of filmmaker Georges M\u00e9li\u00e8s and animator William Kentridge, as well as the world of old children\u2019s books.
\nMaya is an illustrator and a designer. We worked together for the first time when she was still a student at Bezalel, when she designed the first issue of Hearat Shulayim and devised the journal\u2019s aesthetic line. In the 15 years that have passed since, she designed fascinating children\u2019s books, among them \u201cIt\u2019s Not Easy Being a Superhero\u201d, \u201cPrincess Zohara,\u201d and \u201cThe Bunny Who Wanted to be a Tree,\u201d and was chief designer at TheMarker newspaper. All the while, she continued to create her own personal works.
\nThis exhibition, which is Maya\u2019s first in the art field, brings us back together. In this reunion which also we joined forces with Guy Yitzhaki, Nir Yahalom, Yuval Kedem, Studio Poink, Ofir Gal and Yuri Smertenko creating for Maya\u2019s world of motion a space that is somewhere between an open studio, a laboratory, and a cabinet of curiosities.<\/p>\n
