In the series Hora, I explore the symbolism of the circle dance as an expression of community, tradition, and identity. The works are based on archival photographs from the 1940s and 1950s depicting dance scenes from harvest festivals and the Jewish holiday of Shavuot in France, Germany, and Israel. These celebrations connected agricultural cycles with national narratives and reflected both cultural rootedness and its transformation through migration.

I translated these historical photographs into a series of drawings, using a consistent technique to create a temporal and atmospheric connection between the images. By abstracting the motifs and placing them in a new context, I examine how rituals create a sense of community while also carrying political and ideological meanings.
