"Don’t forget I was someone" / P8 Gallery.
A part from the exhibition text by Sally Haftel Nave, the curator of the exhibition:
“Ben Porat examines the monument’s aesthetic, formal, and symbolic values and the duality characterizing it as a sphere where the private and the public meld together. She is interested not in the politics of the monument (as an arena of struggle over the shaping of identity) but in its poetics and the possibility of creating a space for mourning that provides an outlet for sadness and longing.”
