A pair of young artists embark on a journey through a cycle of clothing, rituals, and local mythology. David (Duchi) Cohen's works examine clothing and other elements of identity as a personal anthropological study; Uziel Ranhal focuses on ceremonial dance imagery through prints, lithographs, and oil paintings.

Cohen and Ranchal's works intertwine to create a powerful lens that examines rituals and local identity with a focus that frees them from their limited context and allows for a wide angle and depth of perspective. The works give the ceremonial body and the clothing that surrounds it a different importance, not only when it comes to clothes unique to the ritual but also to everyday and prosaic items of clothing. The joint installation creates an important and principled comparison between the everyday and the festive, essential to the moment when the individual sheds form and takes on form.

Between figuration and abstraction, and between accumulation and erasure, Cohen and Ranchal use the circle and movement as a means of discussing the relationship between the individual and the group. The individuals take on the clothes of the group and take them off, building the circle and opening it. This circle of movement has its own unique character, and the works devote themselves to ritual to create spectacular ways to integrate into it; ways that are subtle and bold at the same time.
