Who sets the borders? What is a territory?

Orit Goldman poses these questions and contemplations in a series of artworks.

Her subject matter is territorial, personal, materialistic, physical, or metaphysical. Her technique uses large paintbrush strokes and collage parts to explore human details or hints and abstract concepts.

When Goldman asks herself, “Who sets the borders?”, her interpretation is multifaceted. On the one hand, it refers to physical-territorial borders that are delineated on maps and raise subtle legitimate political questions, which need to be raised.

On the other hand, she studies the limits of the human spirit and her inner-self values. She breaks the limits of artistic conventions and plays them as she pleases.

For Goldman, painting and art are her playground and where she tests all borders and their limits. Her painting is the result of an evolving process, which utilizes both planning and random exploration, minimalism versus multiple expressive art techniques, and associative experiences. As such, exploring the borders of human experience is essential.

Goldman belongs to the European expressive abstract art movement with influences from the “American Action Painting Art”. Her works of art connect to this essence—specially the 2D use of work space and its size, and to the relationship between colors with multiple meanings.

In addition, a third illusory dimension is created from the set of impressions on a work platform that provides a visual display of subconscious associations and the artist’s experiences.

Goldman is inspired by a visual instinct that relies on her intrinsic values. She expresses artistic freedom throughout her work in which she merges movement, spirit, myth, and enigmatic reality.
