OVERCRAFT

2003

The Art Gallery, Haifa University

Artists’ House, Tel Aviv

OverCraft presents 15 Israeli women-artists who distinctively use an obsessive

and decorative visual language in order to reveal various aspects of

feminist-oriented issues, such as the body, woman-nature relationship,

gender labor politics and pornography.

„Obsession‟ is defined in the dictionary as a domination of one‟s thoughts or

feelings by a persisting idea, image or desire. In psychology this term is

explained as a sort of neurosis characterized by emotionally charged

compulsion. The term “compulsive-obsessive” is common to refer to any

exaggerated preoccupation with something. „Decoration‟ related to

ornamentation, beauty and craftsmanship. OverCraft will focus between

these two terms.
