"Body in Struggle"
The Yigal Alon Center, Art Gallery, Kibbutz Ginosar. Dec.-Feb. 2007.
Aviva Beigel attempts to associate, even become friendly with the illness and, presumably, in this way enlist a sense of optimism that might help in overcoming the trauma.
According to the artist, this was not a conscious process. With the cancer's discovery, she felt betrayed, sad and helpless.Her artwork was her therapy.After the cancer was discovered, she was forbidden by her doctors to eat sweets. As a daughter of a long line bakers and a swarn cookie lover, she turned to
back cookies from clay, painting them, adding decorations and putting glazing on top, everything, anything other than eating them. Her earlier works were filled with shattered glass and ceramics (mosaics) and her movement to whole shapes reflected her way of rejecting the dismantling,shattering ang breakage in her life. Within the "Cookies" series, "human" imagbegan to appear.Some of whom displayed deformities in their shapes using by punctures and depressions.
Beside those works were others in which Aviva inlaid shapes like hearts, cats and palms(representing the artist's handand a sign of good luck) and more, all of which were symbolic motifs of great personal significance as expressions of vitality and continuity. Through butterflies and wings, Aviva tried to sense
gliding high above, hovering above the sickness and pain and pain and her seoaration from them.
Optimism began to sprout from the works and come across as an unconscious message. The flaws
and impariments could not really affect the colorful figures and it seemed that the innocent, colorful and naive style broadcasted primarily a sense of hope and joy.
In the next stage of her work, Amazon- like images began to appear in a way that represented a sense of rectification. The Amazons in Greek mythology were powerful and daring so the name 'Amazon' became synonymous with the ideal of women who are strong and courageous, women of valor.
From Aviva's standpoint, her dealings with the Amazon concept served as a welcome and comforting meeting with women for whom injury, deformity to their bodies and their femininiyy produced control and strength. As in all the bodies of her work, it seems that the visual experience removes the fear of the illness lurking behind the scenes from both the viewer and the artist herself.
