in my process, i always combine colors, shapes and illusion. Sometimes I investigate on the typography and symbolism. In this work, i combined few symbols and letters, collected in the last cycle, as a new language to add to my painting vocabulary.  it starts with writing and sketching, and slowly blurring the lines and evidences of clear lecture of the situation.  I believe the viewer can have their own interpretation of a painting without having the notice of lecture.  In the last two years of my practice, I have been sourcing materials around my studio, collecting Wood, MDf, found materials.  this work is made of 100% of found wood, mdf, another street gems. i try my best to sustainable in the process and to encourage artists and collectors to have this reflection about Art and design.  Behind the lines, I created different paths, encouraging eyes to travel, get lost, a mindscape, in a way to be concentrating on colors and get the essence of light. i guess we can call it meditative, hopefully it will bring some escape in chaos.   pigments and acrylic on reclaimed materials, hand jig saw 2022 Jessica Moritz Tel Aviv, Israel.

velvet lines, geometric escape

This work is a new research about relations. As always i use layers of people, colors, and patterns.
The goal is to establish new connections and erase borders and misconceptions  about figures, colors and relations of course.
 
Also this serie has been conceived to work with natural light with RGB led interactions too.
By that it means that the palette was created to work in daylight and create a new field of interaction with RGB light.



borderline love

as an artist you wish to have a legacy and let behind you meaning fulfillment work,
inspiration and statement, not things.
in this direction, my work is now working with less to create work that will share a message of sustainability, reflection and positivity.
therefore i create an art work in collaboration with Diana Schuemann that challenge urban architecture, and abandoned space to push limit of esthetic and Consummation.
Inside Out
about the video:
link: https://vimeo.com/384394560 Inside Out
06:02 MINI DV, and digital art
Collaboration with Diana Schuemann Dancer and Choreographer and Jessica Moritz Mixed media Artist
Synopsis:
Architecture is the starting point of this project.
As we both are engaged in interactivity and urban architecture, we wanted to create a piece that relates to our vision(s) and questions about choregraphy and interactions.
we came up with the idea of choreography in the white cube as a statement and also as a performance.
Choreography Based on limited gestures in limited space.
Movement is the most basic gesture that we can experience and achieve. Still, when you do it, you often forget that each movement has a direction and goal. As we both are engaged in movement based work in urban space and relations, we decided to build a project interacting with it and develop it around the different interactions and possibilities based on it.
         
 Both of us are also immigrants, so expression will never be the same for us. We had to build our own language to be able to interact in our daily life. Therefore, our attitude and gesture made our experience unique.
Our posture, gesture and observations of our surroundings made us stretch, band over, fold to fit in this life.
In this specific work, where Diana (the performer) is dancing in a closed space but showing to the street and interacting with viewers, people passing by, cars traffic and noise.
Reference: Hans richter, Bruce nauman Jessica Moritz statement :
Her work is based on various studies about colors perceptions.
Lately, she has been using painting, installation, digital art, and sculpture.
Each media allowed me to establish new relations with colors, space an people.
She creates new values for each of them and also establish new relations and pursuit new theories about colors.
The basic idea is simple: create Artwork and expect interactions with the 3 major elements (color, people, space).
the color spectrum is now part of universal knowledge and even used in pop culture. whether i chose to use figuration or abstraction, the point is not about representation but how you can we relate to what you see.
color spectrum: the spectrum is the range of different colors which is produced when light passes through a glass, a prism, or through a drop of water. A rainbow, for example, shows the colors in the spectrum.

Diana Schuemann
Diana Schuemann, born in Germany, alumni of the Weiss-Livnat MA program in Holocaust Studies (Haifa, Israel).
Diana, who has built her dance roots in the Berliner Urban Dance scene, is a performer as well as art historian with a research focus on dance pieces dealing with the Shoah and Genocide. Whilst originally coming from the Hip Hop dance scene, Diana developed throughout the past five years an approach of movement research which combines urban dance, modern and contemporary dance as well as improvisation.
Diana studied for the duration of a year dance at the Lola Rogge School in Hamburg (studying dance techniques of Laban). Joining later on the Israeli dance scene enabled Diana to explore a for her deeper understanding through Ohad Naharin ́s Gaga technique.
From 2017 onwards Diana joined and studied in several Tel Aviv based programs (HASADNA-TEL AVIV, Sharon Eyal, Roni Chadasch, Ohad Naharin) Israeli approaches of dance which enabled an individual movement approach which is (and will be always) rooted in the Urban scene: her vision on dancing is dealing with the Urban scene but combines Gaga, Voguing, Hip Hop and Modern Dance techniques (for i.g. Rudolph v. Laban). The influence of urbanism and daily interactions lead her to this approach.
From 2017-2019 Diana carried out research with Israeli high school students, discussing and exploring the use of dance for teaching about the Holocaust (Leo Baeck Education Centre, Haifa).
When being home in Berlin Diana teaches (Dance Team International) and collaborates in the scene, and joins Urban dance battles. In Israel Diana is part of the raising Voguing scene and gives workshops in the Open House for Pride and Tolerance in Jerusalem (Voluntary Work, free admission for students). In the future she wishes to explore, in collaboration with Tel Aviv based artist Jessica Moritz, own movements and color studies.

Diana Schuemann Statement
Diana Schuemann, (from Berlin Kreuzberg) recently based in Haifa focuses in her dance pieces on the exploration of abandonend urban spaces. This exploration is derived of an understanding that “empty spaces” still move in connection and constant exchange with the outside world. Driven by the idea of what makes human beings move (Pina Bausch) Diana uses and combines the techniques of Hip Hop dance elements, Gaga (Ohad Naharin) and Improvisation (Rudolf v. Laban). 
She stands as an urban statement of our society and current relations we establish and pursue. 
Space emptiness and remains inspire her to create and interact. The lack of human investment in those locations makes any movement as a new breathing, sense of life. 
 
This idea and approach is now one of the main theme(s) in the collaboration work with Tel Aviv based artist Jessica Moritz. The work in progress (starting in the end of 2019) focuses on the inside and outside world, its interaction with one another and will upcoming explore certain movement gestures in combination with color studies (Jessica Moritz).

Inside Out

i have an exhibition currently running at Tiny Tiny Gallery, in Tel Aviv, Israel.
i build a site specific installation of 46 paintings based on the same color palette. all paintings can combine and work with each other and reveal new sides and color interactions.
due to covid-19, the gallery didn't have a lot of visitors and was vandalized last week. 
never the less, the gallery owner and i decided to keep on and still encourage people to make art and support Art.

tiny tiny gallery is the smallest gallery in israel and has been supporting artists all the way.

world design capital 2012

Between the arcades of their dreamful picturesque and bizarre stirring soundscapes, the musicians stroll around in free and interactive play, which sometimes is vibrating like a spiritual meeting. The music lives on antipodes but always strives for harmony. Talking trees come to life in blank forests, a gentle maidens melody disenchants in a piercing shriek. Art Zentral play jazz, wander through the engrossed terrain of avant-garde, to come back to their strange world full of experiments after a joyride on the waves of punkrock. 
(…) these compositions erode almost shamanic bittersweet distillate of surrealistic jazz and chalk fretted art-rock attitudes, which became sprinkled with a supersized pipette from the exotic perfume of an antifolk-girlgenius…ignoring any saints of the genre, six cheerful music-alchemists defy flattering arrangements and don´t shy away from tightening up light-footed compositions with avangardistic field tests like rattling chattels..."

Art Zentral

Liquid is a dance and music performance group focussed on re-imagining the relationship between dancers and musicians on stage. The focus of the group is towards emphasizing the musicality of movement and the spatiality of music.

Biografie:
Liquid cultivate a collection of pieces, each of them with a specific identity, yet every time open to free improvisation. The ‘experience’ of each piece originates from the improvisational process, rather than from predefined compositional forms, making it so that they are new on every execution yet always recognisable as the same piece
Liquid is Giorgio Convertito, Moritz Cartheuser, Libero Mureddu and Terhi Vaimala.
