Keren Anavy, BrainStorming, 2025, ultramarine pigment,...
Keren Anavy
The installation explores how oceans and water channels shift identities and objects across borders. BrainStorming reflects on our relationship with nature, urging viewers to consider the history of waterways and their role in a rapidly changing world. A video shows a crab in the Red Sea (near the artist's birthplace in Israel) crawling over coral, seemingly in search of a home while carrying its shell- both protection and burden. On the floor rests a used canoe filled with ultramarine blue pigment. The canoe, collected with help from locals, marks a meaningful moment in Anavy’s journey as an immigrant artist connecting with the Long Island Sound community. In the installation, the canoe becomes a symbolic vessel rich with American history and personal narrative, yet stripped of function, while the blue pigment speaks to the artist's painterly identity.
