Migration and memory: My Italian journey

This article recounts the creation of an art project that began with the artist’s research in Venice in 2014 and resulted in a 2017 exhibition at the Jewish Museum in Venice’s Jewish Ghetto. The museum’s staff invited her to create new works for their spaces that would interpret Venetian Jewish history in a more contemporary and universal manner. Using cast glass of worn shoes and silk fabric, she created artworks that were then housed in two separate galleries of a former synagogue that poetically resonated with the themes of migration and memory.
