Norma Picciotto, Tears of rain, digital photograph, 30x40cm

The artist presents a series of photos she shot in various places of the Mediterranean. Edited and re-elaborated, they deeply move the audience, evoking the embrace between Jewish culture, contemporary Israel and Italian art through small details. Photography glides into painting and poetry, just as well as Italian artistic elements are intertwined with those of Jewish culture, with scenes of modern Tel Aviv and of. Italy and Israel come together in these images, just as two countries “Washed by the same sea”. Over the sea of Tel Aviv the artist represents a manifest shot in the streets of Barcelona, a bubble, tears of rain and the Third Eye. According to the ancient sages, the third eye allows you to see the invisible, the hidden relationships between things: the pain of an old Sephardic exodus or the vision in the Holy Sepulchre.
