Daniel Oksenberg

In the Studio Daniel Oksenberg, Tel Aviv

The Israeli art scene is densely populated by established artists, whose work is often a direct response to the tension-fraught reality around them.

With her art, Patricia Piccinini opens up a sculptural world of animal-human mutants, cloned creatures, and cyborgs. It is a world that looks at once familiar and fantastic-futuristic.

Marianna Uutinen
