Artist Spotlight: Sharona Eliassaf

Splitting her time since childhood between Israel and New York City, Sharona Eliassaf is deeply affected by the changeable notion of place: Her canvases are stage-like spaces where she manipulates her own sublime, weaving cryptic narratives from the collected experiences of overlapping countries, languages, identities, markets, anxieties, and technologies experienced in the everyday. Like in a dream, nothing is excluded as subject matter: TV game shows, storefront signs, breaking news, overheard conversations, cosmic phenomena, and digital images all swirl and synthesize into a single composition.
