Woodscapes: Erieta Attali On Kengo Kuma

Do you ever think of the relationship between constructed environments and their natural surrounding landscape? Of the atmosphere created from this connection they might have? World-renowned and multi-award-winning Greek-Israeli architectural and landscape photographer Erieta Attali is one of the artists who has devoted her work to the aforementioned questions and seeks the answers through her lenses. 

Following the success of her Limina show two years ago, Attali returns to the Byzantine & Christian Museum for another exhibition.Woodscapes is a temporary photographic exhibition showcasing the Japanese architect Kengo Kuma's wooden architectural creations, which can be found from the most distant corners of Japan to the very heart of Paris. Usually, Attali spends years focusing on her theme of choice and her exhibitions include a large number of photographs. For this show, she has chosen a limited number of 15 of her own shots and presents them as her own personal distilled take on architecture. Attali perceived Kuma's work as a "turning point" that inspired her to view architecture and landscape as being in a continuous dialogue and try to capture this, in her typical manner, through the photographic medium.
