movie day: Zemer Peled with Mark Moore Gallery


Zemer Peled with Mark Moore Gallery from willteeyang on Vimeo.

Mark
Moore Gallery is proud to present Nomad, by Israeli born artist Zemer
Peled. This marks the artist’s first solo exhibition in Los Angeles.

Featuring large-scale sculptures and smaller objects, the exhibition
highlights Peled’s labor-intensive process that bridges narrative and
formalist elements. Peled utilizes a process of creation and destruction
to make sculptures consisting of thousands of handcrafted porcelain
shards resulting in works that can be read in relation to art historical
tradition, outsider art, and natural phenomena.
