2023: Artis

Artist

Merav Kamel & Halil Balabin

Merav Kamel and Halil Balabin are a Tel Aviv-based collaborative duo working together since 2012. Their artistic practice is the outcome of their collective intuition; they follow their instincts to create works that combine absurdity and humor with history, sexuality, and fantasy. Their work is frequently rooted on an inner joke or ironic anecdotes from their daily lives that mix into widespread critical claim. They use with such as fabric, wood, metal, and ceramic to create sculptural dolls and large-scale drawing installations.

Merav Kamel & Halil Balabin have exhibited work at Israel Museum, Jerusalem; Summlung Philara, Düsseldorf; and ZONAMACO Art fair, Mexico City, among others.

Artist

Tamen Pérez

Tamen Pérez employs non-linear storytelling as an approach in her painting, printmaking, and photography to critique Western notions of time and history as universal creations. She re-mediates images that explore the history of perspective and its relationship to the creation of space and subjecthood. Pérez holds an MFA in Painting and Printmaking from Yale School of Art and a BFA in Painting from the Rhode Island School of Design.

Tamen Pérez has exhibited work at Lyles and King Gallery, New York; Y2K Gallery, New York; and Stadium Galerie, Berlin; among others.
