Sigalit Landau combines video, sculpture, photography, and installation to explore memory, identity, and the human condition. Deeply rooted in the landscapes and materials of her native Israel—especially the Dead Sea—she employs natural elements as both medium and metaphor, reflecting the tension between creation and decay. Landau’s art captures the fluid relationship between ephemeral processes and enduring forms, harnessing the forces of nature to examine time, transformation, and experience.
