Featuring the works of: Rotem Ritov and Vera Lossau

 

Rotem Ritov is a multidisciplinary artist whose work spans installation, drawing, video, and performance. Originally from Israel, Rotem moved to Berlin in 2019, where she continues to explore themes of resilience, heritage, and human connection through her art. Her practice often draws from nature and personal experiences, weaving together poetic reflections on identity, memory, and coexistence. Rotem's work has been showcased in various exhibitions and projects, embodying her dedication to both artistic expression and societal dialogue.  
 

Vera Lossau's artistic practice is marked by an exploration of destabilization across psychological, social, and cultural dimensions. She engages with themes of transformation, identity, and the multifaceted meanings of objects, often using materials and forms that challenge traditional interpretations. Her work spans sculptures, installations, video, and performance, blending humor, subversion, and deep anthropological reflection. With influences from feminist theory, historical art traditions, and contemporary cultural critique, Lossau's creations often juxtapose fragility with resilience, inviting viewers to question the familiar and embrace uncertainty.
 

The Blick Event
The joint exhibition by Rotem Ritov and Vera Lossau delves into the enduring power of archetypes, unraveling how ancient narratives have shaped the roles and perceptions of women in historical societies and continue to influence contemporary art and culture. Through the medium of video, drawing, collage and sculpture, both artists engage with the timeless dialogue between past and present, excavating narratives of resilience, identity, and collective memory. Their works transcend linear storytelling, instead evoking the symbolic and cyclical nature of myth as it informs our understanding of femininity, power, and cultural heritage. This exhibition becomes a space for reflection, where the ancient and the contemporary coalesce, challenging the viewer to contemplate the enduring echoes of myth in shaping the human experience.
