Sara Erenthal “Be! (הְוֵי)”
Soapbox Gallery
This event has ended.
Raised in an ultra-orthodox Jewish community, Erenthal escaped to avoid an arranged marriage at age 17 and was subsequently rejected by her entire community. The work exhibited at Soapbox Gallery tells her story and exposes her journey from a completely controlled environment towards her present life as an independent female artist.
Playing with textures and materials often drawn from memories of her past life and reminiscent of traditionally domestic tasks, Erenthal creates installations and raw multi-media pieces that evoke the weight of doctrines and the struggle towards self-determination, while crossing the boundaries of simple storytelling.
