Exposure № 113: Clusters of bright yellow pearls, watch them droop

Naama Sarid-Maleta’ returns with a second image from her most recent series, and tells us a little more about it.
Clusters of bright yellow pearls, watch them droop
Model: Hadas Tapouchi
Location: Tel Aviv
“This is one photo from a series of 11, made in the model’s house. It’s a glimpse into her life (or my life reflected by her), letting us enter under her skin to her most intimate moments. The photos have to do with space and sadness and loneliness. They talk about childhood fantasy and the disappointment of growing up.”

Naama Sarid-Maleta’ is an architect. She began an intense career as a documentary and conceptual photographer in Madrid (2008) and has contributed to magazines and publications in Europe and Israel. She has participated in numerous exhibitions in Ukraine, Spain and Israel. Her sustained challenge as an artist is the desire to “build dreams” in visual codes. She had developed a scheme of work based on the interaction of enforcement procedures and the organizations of architecture and a conceptual result more expressionistic and plastic in its nature. Her husband is also an architect and photographer from Cuba, and they work as a team with multidisciplinary projections.

Exposure № 095: And god made me a woman

Naama Sarid-Maleta’ tells us that this photo is an homage to Frida Khalo. The fish on the plates symbolize her femininity and fertility. But the background hints about her health problems, forcing  her to stay in bed a for much of her life.

Exposure № 089: Increase ye, and be ye multiplied, and fill ye the earth

The conclusion of Naama Sarid-Maleta’s emotional series of photos dealing with the experience of going through fertility treatments and IVF. These images articulate without words the difficulty and emotional impact of this process.

My Lonely Needles, Like Tears I shed

Increase ye, and be ye multiplied, and fill ye the Earth

Increase ye, and be ye multiplied, and fill ye the Earth
