 This exhibition presents drawings of landscapes and figures that were drawn in pen on small format paper. The choice of these modest and minimalist tools is not coincidental: Shimrit Baer has no interest in external means, but rather in the gaze of the inward-looking viewer.

A poetic mood prevails over her drawings. Baer's work is chamber-like and touches on extremely fragile capillaries, walking on the edge of bare nerve.
