Product information "Moharamia in the Jordan River"

Amir Nave's work oscillates between drawing, painting,and sculpture. He focuses on the human being, whichhe executes in an obsessive, spiritual, or even mysticalmanner. His "creatures" are figures sometimes depictedas a body, a head, or an entity. They draw on deeply buriedpasts as well as possible futures. Even if some ofhis works are reminiscent of classics of art history andmythology, Nave refutes the idea of a painterly representationof life. In his take on the story of Moharamia,the artist tells of a revelation that appeared to themortal Moharamia at the River of Jordan. Through hisdrawings, paintings, and the sculptural form he has constructed,he renders this tale into a reflection on occultism,the supernatural, and metaphysical questions.
