Welcome to vernissage/opening on the 12th of April. The exhibition is open from the 12th until the 28th of April.

Opening hours TUE-THU 16- 21, FRI-SAT 11:00-14:00

The exhibition is titled Ilana which was inspired by the artist’s Jewish name. In Hebrew Ilana means ‘tree’, but should not be interpreted literally; instead it refers to the ‘idea’ of a tree, or a poetic concept, the tree of life. This exhibition shows how the artist has grown on her travels from Scandinavia to Israel, on a search to understand her heritage. It focuses on the different understandings and misunderstandings of the real world.

The artist chose to showcase the images in a photographic motif from all over the world, including the Middle East, Africa and Norway and many more. Themes range from Muslim family life in Egypt, a student from a small village in Ghana, drag queen performers in Israel to even the artist’s own childhood home in Norway. In contrast to these, there will be other additional photos that are greatly manipulated of the real world.

Nora Savosnick is a photographer from Norway who finished her studies at Bilder Nordic School of Photography in January 2017. She is currently working as an intern for Flash90, Israel’s leading photojournalism agency. She has already displayed her work at two separate exhibitions in Norway and curated for Trafo’s 15th anniversary exhibition – Trafo is Scandinavia’s largest online platform for young artists. She is also a co-founder and avid member of Fletta’s artist group in Norway (www.fletta.net). In November 2016 and February 2017, she was rewarded as Trafo’s monthly talent.
