The acceleration of the climate crisis has led the artist Eden Herman Rosenblum, who focused on contemporary jewellery, to create personal objects through which she hopes to generate discourse on the complex relationship between nature and human beings.
Artist list
Eden Herman Rosenblum
The artist Eden Herman Rosenblum is invited for her first solo exhibition Solastalgia curated by Vared Babai at The Artists' House in Tel Aviv.
She will present works dealing with nomadism, climate migration and melting glaciers, while she weaves her personal story of immigration to Israel when she was a child.
In her pieces she refers to the motifs of: Water as we can see in the Wrecking Globe series, of rattles dealing with decay; Earth, in the Sad Stone series of Sand stones which deals with healing and completion; and Flora, in the Tumble World series dealing with nomads and climate migrants. In the display of the objects, she involves artificial and mechanical elements such as a light pendulum, and a controlled breeze, to create a jarring encounter between the forces of nature and human nature.
Solastalgia is a term coined by the Australian philosopher and environmental activist, Glenn Albrecht, some twenty years ago. Its meaning is emotional distress experienced as a result of a change for the worst in one’s living environment or the longing for that environment once forced to leave it.
In her exhibition, Eden Herman Rosenblum brings the feeling of solastalgia to the fore. She faces this moment on the planet without flinching and makes an uncompromising statement about her own life and that of the earth’s population. For the first time, she renounces giving her works either function or wearability, as she used to do in the past. But this most personal statement conceals a stance that ties her to society in the fullest way.
Opening reception on December 29th at 7 pm.
Opening days and hours: Thursday 10h - 13h, 17h - 19h.
Friday: 10h - 13h. Saturday 11h - 14h.
Closed on Monday.
