In order to express the intensity of her personal experience adequately but generally enough to apply to the broader human condition, Israeli contemporary artist Michal Rovner often marries photography, video, digital art, and painting in a mélange that ignores traditional categories of medium and process. This technological fluency helps her generate pictures of unusual authority and resonance: fusions of the real and the imaginary as familiar as scenes in our own dreams and just as spare, haunting, and, ultimately, elusive. This silkscreen edition is based on Rovner’s two minutes film "Fields of Fire", 2005. The video work is a response to the artist's journey to oil wells in Kazakhstan, reflecting the persistent instability of a region at the epicenter of international scrutiny.
