Her Name is Lola / 2015

mixed media, 150x110x21 cm

Presents itself as a glowing bubble of Far-Eastern exoticism. A series of playing cards with nude pictures are spread in a circular fan – a shape that is echoed from above by a circular arrangement of lush banana leaves. The arrangement is meant to channel a cheap erotic fantasy of faraway places where all is ostensibly available and permitted. The erotic cards, made in China and featuring dated images of East-European women, to be finally sold in the backstreets of downtown Tel Aviv, are represented here in a way as to unmask the absurd trajectories of global capitalism.
