C24 Gallery is pleased to present You Belong Here – Works by Orit Ben Shitrit & Nirit Takele curated by David C. Terry
Moroccan-Israeli artist, Orit Ben Shitrit & Ethiopian-Israeli artist Nirit Takele have both experienced numerous cultural influences at a young age. At a time when questions of home, homeland and displacement loom large on the global landscape, these artists each channel their personal histories of mixed identity, culminating in a multi-media exhibition that collectively explores notions of self and belonging in a complex and dangerous world. Ben Shitrit and Takele both play against the experience of being “othered” to deliver genuine portrayals of everyday life and nuanced responses to the injustices and violence they’ve experienced or observed.
