This exhibition, presenting the artworks of first-degree graduate students from the Department of the Arts at Ben-Gurion University in Eilat, refers to a wide variety of subjects and voices. The works delve into personal issues – parenthood, choice-making, emotions, memories – as well as social issues, such as tradition versus modernity, or burning issues like violence toward children in kindergartens and sexual harassment. Various techniques are employed to convey each work's distinguished perspective. Yet, beyond exhibiting an accomplished product, the works aspire to unearth the thinking process and the dialogue of one with her own self and the environment, while exploring the potential of one's expressive artistic language.
