Description

Exodus is a new series of unique prints by Ella Littwitz. The botanical images echo the geological phenomenon known as manganese flowers (Dendrites) - a crystalline formation of manganese oxides that develops on rock surfaces. The resulting works function as tiny maps recorded and engraved within the material.

The images printed with manganese oxide, a substance that is toxic to breathe, are collages of manganese flowers, a story of a journey that has been reconstructed.

The Artist

Ella Littwitz

Ella Littwitz investigates political, social, and cultural landscapes by appropriating and shifting specific elements connected to the land. Pivotal to her practice is the constant desire of humans to create sovereign ideologies by drawing limits, borders, and frontiers, sometimes even controlling nature and moving soil. Littwitz’s interest in a specific stretch of land – namely Israel and Palestinian territories – stems from its status as a crossroads of religions, geography, and politics; water, soil, and sky; mythologies, beliefs, and momentous transitions. Her works echo its biblical and modern narratives, presenting us with diverse examples of transition, transfiguration, and the formation of political constructs through acts of belief.
