This multimedia exhibition delves into the eternal tide between creation and collapse, where the forces of nature and human ambition intertwine. Drawing upon the mythology of the golem and the leviathan, zaslavsky explores the remnants of past structures and the emergence of new forms.
What remains after collapse? The fragmented works serve as both elegy and prophecy, mapping the spaces between decay and regeneration. Repurposing artworks into new forms is an act of continuous creation—one that acknowledges destruction not as an end, but as a vital part of the creative process. Just as ruins provide the foundation for new structures, past works become raw material for new works, carrying their histories across mediums.
In 'jeff,' zaslavsky engages in an ongoing dialogue between past and present, presence and absence. Each layer, fragment, and reassembled element carries traces of its former self, yet emerges anew. In this way, repurposing is not just an act of preservation, but of possibility.
